Dragonette-1

Dragonette-1 is Wyvern's hyperspectral imaging satellite. It collects 23 spectral bands between 503 and 799 nm at 5.3m resolution at nadir, across a 20km swath. Those 23 bands resolve narrow spectral features that 4-band multispectral sensors cannot separate.

What you can do with Dragonette-1

Detail at 5.3m GSD

At 5.3m GSD, pattern at field, stand and catchment scale is what reads, rather than individual objects.

Material discrimination

23 narrow bands across 503 to 799 nm, each with its own stated width, keep the spectral shape that a four-band sensor averages into a single number. That shape is what separates surfaces sharing the same true colour: crop varieties, water condition, surface materials.

One satellite collecting

Collection rests on a single spacecraft, so opportunities arrive on its orbit rather than on demand. As stated by the supplier: 2.1 days revisit at equator, 1.0 days at 60° latitude. That is the cadence to plan against; a cloud-free result usually takes more than one opportunity.

Dynamic range

Quantised at 12 bits. The extra levels are what hold detail at both ends of a high-contrast scene, where bright surfaces and shadow would otherwise clip together.
