FAQ

Buy Satellite Imagery: Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before you buy satellite imagery or buy satellite images online, from pricing to resolution to delivery.

Buy satellite imagery on buysatelliteimages.com by setting your area of interest, resolution and date range, then choosing archive imagery or new tasking. Pricing is calculated instantly and shown before you order, with no quotes or sales calls required.
The highest resolution available is 25-30cm, offered in our Super High Resolution tier with daily revisit and priority or emergency tasking options.

A high-resolution satellite photo costs between $1 and $30 per square kilometer, depending on resolution and order type. Standard archive imagery starts at $1/km² at 2m resolution, while tasking at 25-30cm resolution reaches $30/km².

Archive imagery orders are typically ready to download within minutes of purchase. New tasking orders for fresh imagery are usually delivered in under 7 days, with priority and emergency options for faster turnaround.
Yes, new tasking lets you request a fresh satellite capture of any specific location on Earth, even if no recent image exists. You set your target dates and cloud cover requirements, and a satellite is scheduled to capture the area.
No, you do not need a subscription to buy high-resolution images on buysatelliteimages.com. You can purchase a single dataset on demand, paying only for the exact area, resolution and date you need.
Purchase satellite photos from buysatelliteimages.com for upfront pricing, resolution from 25cm to 80cm, and access to archive and new tasking imagery in one portal. Orders are self-service, with no quotes, contracts or sales calls required.
Satellite imagery resolution is the size of the smallest object visible in an image, measured in centimeters per pixel. Lower numbers mean sharper detail, so 25cm resolution shows far more detail than 80cm resolution for the same location.
Archive imagery is an existing satellite image already captured and ready for immediate delivery. New tasking orders a fresh satellite capture of your exact location and date range, which costs more but guarantees current conditions.
Yes, it is legal to buy satellite images of a specific location when purchased from a legitimate commercial provider. Most countries permit commercial satellite imagery sales to individuals and businesses, though buyers should use images responsibly.
Yes, you can buy a satellite image of your own house through a commercial satellite imagery provider. Resolution, image age and price depend on how recently that area was captured and which resolution tier you choose.
Satellite imagery is commonly delivered in GeoTIFF, JPEG2000, SHP or DWG formats, depending on the product type. GeoTIFF is the most widely used format for GIS software and analysis tools.
High resolution satellite imagery typically achieves sub-meter positional accuracy, measured using CE90 and RMSE standards. This means most points in the image fall within a defined distance of their true location on the ground.
Cloud cover is the percentage of an image obscured by clouds, and higher cloud cover reduces how much usable ground detail you get. Setting a low cloud cover requirement when ordering helps ensure clearer, more usable satellite imagery.
Commercial satellite imagery is available to individuals, businesses and government agencies, not just military or government buyers. Most providers only require a valid account and payment method to place an order.
Agriculture, mining, construction, insurance, energy, environmental monitoring and urban planning all benefit from using satellite photos. Businesses use satellite photos for site monitoring, change detection and disaster response.
Near real-time view means imagery is delivered shortly after a satellite captures it, typically within hours to a day, rather than instantly. It is not a live video feed, but it is far faster than standard archive imagery.
Yes, hi-res satellite imagery is available for 3D modeling through stereo and tri-stereo tasking, for all-weather monitoring through SAR imagery, and for advanced analysis through hyperspectral and multispectral data.
No, satellites do not provide real-time live video of your house. Satellite imagery is captured at a specific pass time and delivered afterward, so even near real-time options show a recent snapshot rather than a live feed.
