Faster image availability and large-scale coverage will be a few of WorldView-2's improved capabilities. The satellite will see more of the world more often with a constellation intraday revisit capability and an individual collection capability of 975,000 square kilometers per day, a rate never seen before in the high-resolution commercial satellite market, according to DigitalGlobe.
