Products |
QuickBird panchromatic (black and white)
products are based on 61-centimeter resolution
(at nadir) and 11-bit collected information
depth. The panchromatic sensor collects
information at the visible and near-infrared
wavelengths and has a bandwidth of 450-900
nm.
The output resolution of the Panchromatic
product varies with product level. Basic
Imagery is delivered at the Ground Sample
Distance in which the data were collected
(ranging from 61 cm at nadir to 72 cm at
25° off-nadir), while Standard and
Ortho Imagery products are resampled to
a 60 or 70 cm resolution. |
Multi-spectral Products |
QuickBird Multi-spectral products provide
four discrete non-overlapping spectral
bands and 11-bit collected information
depth. The multi-spectral products cover
the visible and near-infrared wavelengths
in four bands. All four bands are delivered
in one file.
The output resolution of the Multi-spectral
product varies with product level. Basic
Imagery products are delivered at the resolution
in which the data were collected (ranging
from 2.44 m to 2.88 m), while Standard
and Ortho Imagery products are resampled
to a 2.4 or 2.8 m pixel spacing. |
Panchromatic and Multi-spectral Bundle |
The QuickBird satellite collects both multi-spectral
and panchromatic imagery concurrently,
therefore customers have the option to
order both panchromatic and multi-spectral
products for the same area. When a customer
selects this option, the products will
be processed to the same product level,
the same product parameters, and delivered
as two distinct products (one containing
panchromatic imagery and one containing
all four multi-spectral bands) with two
sets of associated Image Support Data (ISD)
files. |
Pan-Sharpened Colour Products |
60 or 70-centimeter Pan-sharpened products,
combine the visual information of the 2.4/2.8-meter
multi-spectral bands with the spatial information
of the panchromatic band. The options are:
- 4 Bands (B, G, R, NIR)
- Natural Colour composite ( blue, green,
red)
- Colour Infrared composite (green, red,
infrared)
Pan-sharpened Colour products are delivered
as a single file. They are available only
as Standard/Standard Ortho-ready or Ortho
(not Basic) Imagery products. |
