BlackSky and Esri Partner to Offer First On-Demand Dynamic Satellite Tasking to Global ArcGIS Online Customer Base

The companies have released a new cloud-based satellite tasking app called BlackSky Tasking. Designed for ArcGIS Online, the app allows Esri users to task a BlackSky satellite and have dynamic, on-demand imagery delivered directly into their ArcGIS Online organization.

BlackSky Tasking is available in the Esri ArcGIS Marketplace. BlackSky’s high-revisit constellation and its underlying Spectra AI platform make it possible for users to seamlessly incorporate near real-time imagery into projects without additional processing or manipulation. The process is fully automated and once images arrive in a customer’s ArcGIS Online organization, they can immediately be used in other Esri apps.
