Scan On Target,
No Matter the Path
The only SAR on the market that breaks free from the ground track.
Shift Perspective
Umbra’s Scan isn’t bound by the satellite’s flight path. We enable cross-track collection, giving you longer and wider areas in a single collection — so you can focus on what matters most.
Collect Wider Coverage
Where others are limited at 1.2 m, resolution Umbra pushes further. Umbra’s Scan delivers industry-leading clarity and wide coverage, with resolutions as low as 50 cm and footprints up to 8 km x 100 km, ensuring no detail is lost in the big picture.
Maintain Awareness
From maritime domain awareness to border security, pipeline monitoring, and environmental response, Umbra’s Scan provides surveillance with both the breadth of coverage and the granularity of detail needed for decisive action.

Umbra’s Scan captures wide areas of the Earth with clarity and flexibility.
Unlike traditional stripmap collections that are locked to a parallel ground track, Umbra’s Scan can collect imagery off-track — giving analysts and operators wider coverage, richer context, and sharper detail. With resolution from 50 cm to 2 m, it’s the highest-resolution large-area SAR on the market, built for missions where others fall short.
Maritime Surveillance – Detect and track vessels across wide ocean expanses, even in poor weather or at night.
Border Security – Persistently monitor crossings, corridors, and terrain to detect and respond to illicit activity.
Environmental Monitoring – Track sea ice deformation, land use change, and ecological shifts across massive areas.
Infrastructure Oversight – Watch over pipelines, coastal infrastructure, and transportation networks with clarity and scale.
With large-area scans delivered directly to Canopy and in optimized compression formats, we make wide-area SAR more accessible and operational than ever.
While traditional stripmaps stay parallel to orbit, Umbra’s Scan collects off-path to capture the scenes that matter most.
Umbra’s Scan provides rapid, wide-area coverage to support defense, security, and environmental missions.
