ICEYE Dwell mode products are now available through ESA’s Third Party Missions programme. Within the Third Party Mission scheme, ESA provides to Earth Observation users data from non-ESA missions, so-called Third Party Missions, to complement the data from ESA EO missions and to support and build up the scientific user community for those data in Europe.  

The ICEYE Constellation, developed and operated by ICEYE, has been part of the Third Party Programme since 2020. ICEYE full archive and new tasking products are available in Strip, Spot, SLEA (Spot Extended Area), Scan, and now, Dwell mode. 

With the satellite staring at the same location for up to 25 seconds, Dwell mode is a very long Spot mode SAR collection. This yields a very fine azimuth resolution and highly-reduced speckle. The 25 second collection time allows the acquired image stack to be reconstructed as a video to give insight into the movement of objects. 

For more information on the available products and how to access the data, please visit the dedicated data collection page.  

The utilisation of this data is subject to ESA's TPM Terms and Conditions.
