Hero Turn Satellite Imagery into Mission-Ready Intelligence

Maritime Clarity, Powered by Satellites

Most satellite-based solutions stop at a static snapshot, offering limited coverage, context, and integration with your workflow. Remote Sensing Intelligence changes that, combining layered satellite coverage, AI-powered analysis, and embedded operational context to deliver real decision advantage.

Access and task a wide range of commercial satellites across electro-optical (EO), synthetic aperture radar (SAR), and Radio Frequency (RF) sensors. Filter by resolution, revisit rate, cloud cover, and more to match your mission needs. Whether reviewing archives or tasking new collections, capture pinpoint locations or wide-area coverage — getting the right satellite-based data at the right time, under any conditions.

Windward transforms satellite-based data into actionable intelligence by fusing AI detections with behavioral and positional context. Our models automatically identify vessels and maritime objects in EO and SAR imagery, correlate RF emissions with AIS signals, and align detections with vessel tracks and risk profiles — delivering a complete, contextual view of activity at sea.

Every satellite image and RF collection you acquire is stored in your in-app archive, with no expiration. Add comments, track investigative insights, and revisit any collection to support long-term case management and collaboration. Whether it’s visual confirmation or signal intelligence, all your data remains accessible, traceable, and permanently linked to your investigations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Windward’s Remote Sensing Intelligence combines satellite data from EO, SAR, and RF sensors with AI-powered object detections and behavioral analytics. It turns raw imagery and signal data into actionable intelligence for defense, government, energy, and compliance missions, enabling faster, verified decisions.

Remote sensing closes the visibility gap in maritime surveillance, providing continuous insights where AIS, radar, or patrol assets can’t reach. It allows users to identify threats, verify activity, and confirm compliance under any conditions – day, night, or cloud cover.

The solution integrates Electro-Optical (EO), Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), and Radio Frequency (RF) sensors from multiple commercial providers. This multi-sensor fusion ensures persistent, global, and weather-agnostic coverage across all maritime environments.

Windward automatically correlates satellite detections with vessel behavior, AIS data, and ownership records. This transforms unstructured imagery and RF signals into context-rich intelligence that distinguishes normal maritime activity from risk or deception.

Windward’s Remote Sensing Intelligence detects dark vessel operations and movements, IUU fishing, oil spills, and unauthorized border or zone intrusions. It also supports infrastructure protection by monitoring offshore platforms, pipelines, and undersea cables for abnormal vessel activity or potential interference. By fusing EO, SAR, and RF data with behavioral analytics, it gives agencies a complete picture of security and environmental threats at sea.

Windward’s Remote Sensing Intelligence supports a wide range of government and commercial missions, from dark vessel detection, smuggling interdiction, and border monitoring to trade finance validation, port activity analysis, and commodity tracking. By fusing EO, SAR, and RF data with behavioral analytics, it delivers mission-ready insights for security, compliance, energy operations, and global trade visibility.

Windward’s activity-based intelligence streamlines mission planning by using behavioral analytics and early detection models to identify where and when to deploy remote sensing assets. Once a potential lead or anomaly is detected, the system automatically scans all available satellite capture slots – factoring in weather, visibility, resolution, and sensor type – to recommend the optimal collection. This ensures every tasking is targeted, efficient, and mission-ready, eliminating hours of manual planning.

Windward’s AI models detect vessels in EO and SAR imagery, correlate RF emissions with AIS signals, and flag anomalies in seconds. Each detection is verified against behavioral and positional context, minimizing false positives and accelerating operational response.

Windward provides access to archived EO and SAR imagery from multiple commercial providers, allowing users to look back and investigate past maritime events. Every acquired image is automatically stored in an in-app library, where users can annotate, comment, download, share, and revisit imagery directly on the map. This creates a permanent, collaborative record that supports long-term investigations, case management, and intelligence continuity across teams.

Yes. With Bring Your Own Imagery (BYOI), organizations can upload EO or SAR imagery into Windward’s environment. Each upload is enhanced with automated detections, analytics, and context, creating a unified intelligence layer across all internal and external data.

Yes. Users can request new EO, SAR, or RF satellite imagery in-app, filtering by resolution, revisit rate, and coverage area. This ensures timely data capture for dynamic missions or evolving investigations.

By fusing satellite imagery, RF, and behavioral models, Windward delivers a complete operational picture, enabling agencies to monitor, detect, and analyze maritime activity with precision, context, and continuity.

Windward uses SAR, EO, and RF satellites to monitor offshore platforms, pipelines, and undersea cables for unauthorized activity or physical change. By combining imagery-based detections with behavioral analytics and vessel risk models, it enables early warning of potential interference, sabotage, or espionage near critical maritime assets.

Remote Sensing Intelligence supports commercial and compliance missions across global trade and energy operations. It enables offshore platform and rig security, oil spill monitoring, wet bulk ship-to-ship (STS) transfer detection, dry bulk stockpile measurement, trade finance verification, and port activity monitoring. By combining multi-sensor satellite coverage with Windward’s behavioral analytics, it transforms remote sensing data into decision-ready insights for operational and financial integrity.

Every detection includes traceable metadata and clear audit logs, ensuring full transparency. Users can review validation steps, confirm source imagery, and understand why specific activities were flagged, supporting regulator- and mission-ready accountability.
