BlackBridge announced that it has entered into an agreement with the Climate Corporation to provide RapidEye imagery of the major agricultural areas across the U.S.

FarmersEdge announced an agreement with BlackBridge today to expand their use of RapidEye high-resolution satellite imagery. This long-term contract grants Farmers Edge access to historical and cropping season imagery to North America, South America, Australia, and Eastern Europe.

BlackBridge’s Monitoring Programs for Agriculture are unique in the market, providing newly collected and archived five-meter RapidEye satellite imagery across all major North American agricultural areas and other regions of the world multiple times throughout the growing season.

Agrian Inc. announced today that beginning in Jan. 2015, Agrian users will have access to all current and historical BlackBridge satellite imagery available through the BlackBridge Agriculture Monitoring Service in the U.S. and Canada—for a nominal fee.

Following its previously announced commitment to provide continuity to the existing RapidEye satellite constellation, BlackBridge released the details of the RapidEye+ constellation concept at its ENABLE 2014 Partner Conference.
