‘ICEYE US Direct’ Platform Unveiled
SkyFi and ICEYE Streamline Access to Advanced SAR Satellite Imagery
ICEYE US Direct, a new, white-labeled platform, has been launched by SkyFi and ICEYE. The platform, built and operated by SkyFi, provides ICEYE US customers with direct, on-demand global access to ICEYE’s cutting-edge Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite constellation, simplifying the entire process of tasking, acquisition, and analysis.

ICEYE US Direct is designed to support a wide range of applications, from national security and maritime domain awareness to disaster response and infrastructure monitoring.
SkyFi has engineered the ICEYE US Direct platform to remove the traditional barriers to access SAR imagery, offering an intuitive user experience that empowers both commercial and government users to leverage satellite imagery and data analytics for critical decision-making. SAR technology provides unparalleled monitoring capabilities, penetrating clouds, smoke, and darkness to deliver high-resolution imagery day or night, in any weather condition.
“ICEYE US provides SAR technology capable of delivering data through all weather conditions. With the launch of ICEYE US Direct on SkyFi, we’re making this data more readily available to users who depend on it. The collaboration combines ICEYE’s satellite capabilities with SkyFi’s user-friendly interface to offer accessible, on-demand geospatial intelligence,” said Luke Fischer, CEO of SkyFi.
The platform enables users to define their area of interest, specify imaging parameters, and task an ICEYE satellite with just a few clicks. This streamlined workflow drastically reduces the time and complexity previously associated with acquiring SAR data, allowing organizations to accelerate their analytical and operational timelines.
“With ICEYE US Direct, powered by SkyFi, we’re putting satellite tasking directly into the hands of customers and providing them with timely, actionable and customized insights,” said Eric Jensen, ICEYE US CEO. “This new platform is transforming complex SAR data gathering into an intuitive, on-demand experience that is faster, more flexible and mission-ready. With this partnership, our customers will have access to an enhanced capability to help them make critical decisions related to national security, defense, disaster response and more.”
“Whether detecting illegal fishing fleets at night, assessing flood impacts during severe weather, or monitoring infrastructure or military assets, customers across numerous sectors can now obtain the information they need when it counts. This helps sectors including disaster response, energy and infrastructure, supply chain operations, and national security,” Fischer concluded.
ICEYE satellites utilize a unique advanced phased-array radar system that enables responsive tasking and supports flexible collection modes, from 50cm - 15m resolution spotlight to over 10,000 square kilometer large area scan imaging.
