Tasking Products We Offer

Tasking allows you to request new satellite imagery of a specific Area of Interest (AOI) during a selected capture window.

Aurora currently supports Regular Tasking. You do not need to manually select a tasking product when placing an order. Simply select your desired capture window, and Aurora will apply the applicable tasking option automatically.

Regular Tasking

Regular Tasking is the standard option for requesting new imagery from Pixxel's satellites.

It is available when your selected capture window is 14 days or longer.

How Regular Tasking works

When creating a tasking order:

1. Define your Area of Interest (AOI).
2. Select your capture window.
3. Configure your preferred imaging parameters, such as:
   • Cloud cover
   • Off-nadir angle
   • Spectral bandset
4. Run the Feasibility Check to confirm that the requested parameters can be fulfilled.
5. Add the order to your cart and proceed with checkout.

Important considerations

• The capture window must be at least 14 days.
• Your selected capture window must meet Aurora's tasking feasibility requirements.
• The capture window dates are interpreted in UTC.
• The start date of your capture window must be at least 48 hours after the order is placed.
• A feasibility check helps determine whether the requested capture is achievable, but it does not guarantee successful image capture. Weather, satellite availability, scheduling constraints, and other operational factors may affect the outcome.

Note: Tasking product availability and pricing may change as new tasking options are introduced to Aurora. Any additional tasking products will be reflected in Aurora when they become available.

Need a different capture timeline?

If your required capture window does not meet the Regular Tasking requirements, adjust your requested dates and run the feasibility check again.
