Vantor’s orbital intelligence capabilities can provide insights into a space object’s features, health, velocity, movements, and orbit changes.
In June, NGA awarded Vantor a Luno contract to deliver AI and machine learning-generated object detection services across air, maritime, land, and rail domains.
The NGA Luno award is Vantor’s third win under the Luno program.
Vantor received a third National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency Luno contract to provide automated, near real-time orbital intelligence on high-interest objects in space for NGA and other U.S. Government agencies.
Vantor’s analysis under the Luno contract will be largely automated.
Vantor previously received a Luno contract to automatically detect land use and land cover change at global scale for NGA.
Under the contract, Vantor will use high-resolution non-Earth imagery of space objects to deliver intelligence on priority objects in low Earth orbit and provide alerts when anomalies are present.
The Vantor Luno contract expands Vantor’s partnership with the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency.
Vantor collected a non-Earth image of a Chinese imaging satellite under its NGA Luno B contract.
Vantor won its third NGA GEOINT Luno contract to deliver automated, near real-time orbital intelligence on high-interest space objects.
Vantor captured an LG02 image of space object 66056 on 2026-01-07 at 21:00:16Z.
The Vantor LG02 image of space object 66056 was taken at a range of 32 km.
The Chinese imaging satellite in Vantor’s non-Earth image is a synthetic aperture radar satellite with a large deployable antenna for high-resolution radar imaging from orbit.
The Vantor Luno contract is a $2.3 million award.
The Vantor LG02 image of space object 66056 has a stated SSD of 2.1 cm.
Vantor will contribute to the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency's Land Use Land Cover classification system by pinpointing shifts in buildings, roads, vegetation, and other key land cover elements worldwide.
Vantor's virtual constellation concept enables collection, processing, analysis, and dissemination of geospatial intelligence from multiple satellite fleets.
Vantor's Luno A work leverages the commercial Site Sentry service, which is designed to monitor hundreds of locations in parallel.
Vantor will integrate data from multiple space-based sensors, including its own imaging satellites and third-party electro-optical and synthetic aperture radar satellites.
Vantor's change detection models work across different sensor types and data providers to maintain characterization of how land is used and how it is evolving.
