Vancouver’s EarthDaily Analytics has won a $3 million task order from NASA to help the U.S. Geological Survey evaluate commercial data for federal land imaging programs, under the joint Sustainable Land Imaging initiative. EarthDaily built its constellation specifically to measure change on Earth.
NASA and the USGS will test EarthDaily Constellation data against Landsat standards for quality, calibration and stability. The project also examines how commercial observation can produce AI-ready data designed for machine-learning workflows, extending a Landsat record built over decades of measurement.
