Spire Global has been chosen to provide hosted payload services to support KeyW’s demonstration of space-based technology platforms and deployment of larger constellations.
KeyW CEO Bill Weber said in a statement published Monday that the company aims to demonstrate its ability to support intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions through the partnership.
Spire operates a constellation of nanosatellites and a network of ground stations built to collect shipping, aircraft and weather data. The company also hosts third-party payloads on its satellites as part of its “space-as-a-service†offering.
