EOS is the satellite data platform of EOS Data Analytics: browse and analyze imagery in LandViewer, order high-resolution scenes per km², monitor fields with Crop Monitoring, or pull imagery and weather data through a REST API.

EOS is the satellite data platform of EOS Data Analytics (EOSDA), which describes itself as a global provider of satellite data and intelligence that operates the EOS SAT-1 satellite alongside 20+ partner constellations. It is a family of products rather than one app: LandViewer for satellite imagery analytics in the browser, Crop Monitoring for farms, EOS RayVision for tailored analytical reports, and a Satellite Data API for developers.
EOSDA says it was founded in 2015 and grew within the Noosphere space group established by Dr. Max Polyakov. It also claims 96M km² of Earth surface analyzed monthly, 100+ satellites accessed and 150+ countries monitored.
Trade press has reported that EOS SAT-1, the first satellite of EOSDA's agriculture-focused constellation, was built by Dragonfly Aerospace of South Africa. EOSDA says EOS SAT-1 was successfully launched at the start of 2023. EOS products also rely on public missions such as Sentinel and Landsat and on commercial partner satellites.
In practice there are four ways to pay: free or subscription access to medium-resolution imagery, pay-per-km² orders of commercial scenes, hectare-based farm monitoring plans, and sales-led contracts for the API and RayVision.
LandViewer draws on public missions like Sentinel, Landsat, and MODIS and on commercial providers such as SuperView-1/2, Beijing-3A/3N, and BlackSky Gen2/3, covering optical, SAR and terrain map data.
LandViewer also sells high-resolution satellite imagery from commercial providers, either from archives or through new tasking over your area. Depending on the provider, orders can include SAR for all-weather observation, hyperspectral scenes and stereo pairs for elevation models.
New captures sold as near real-time mean delivery within 24–48 hours after acquisition, depending on the provider and order conditions. Archive scenes between 0.3 and 2.0 m/px arrive as a GeoTIFF clipped to your AOI in your account 2-3 days after the order.
EOSDA Crop Monitoring is described as a one-stop online satellite-driven platform for precision agriculture that serves food producers, insurers, input suppliers and other agribusinesses. Sentinel-2 at 10 m per pixel is its main source, while Planet imagery at 3 m and EOS SAT-1 imagery at 1.5 m can be ordered on the basic subscription.
Subscribers can also download vegetation index readings, field geometry files, weather, VRA maps, scouting reports and activity log reports. That makes it crop monitoring software that can feed other agronomy tools, not only a dashboard.
EOS RayVision is a satellite-based, AI-powered monitoring and intelligence platform where you define areas of interest and detection goals such as change, objects or impacts. It works more like a managed service: EOSDA chooses the sensor mix of optical and radar (SAR) imagery, adding thermal and hyperspectral sensors in specific cases, and delivers GEOJSON / KML / SHP datasets, a PDF report and an interactive smart map.
The EOSDA API is a RESTful API for integrating satellite data into your own application or an existing GIS application. It returns raster images in JPEG, PNG, or GeoTIFF formats. The Weather Data API adds 14-day hourly forecasts and historical weather records since 1979.
These examples come from EOSDA's own pages and customer quotes, not from independent audits.
EOS is a poor fit for resellers: the terms allow personal, consumer or internal business use and exclude selling access to the Services to any third party.
Crop Monitoring prices sit on an in-app Pricing page opened with the arrow button in the bottom right corner of the screen, and Essential and Professional prices were not publicly displayed on the eos.com pages checked. LandViewer sells Explorer and Pro as monthly or yearly subscriptions, but their prices were not displayed on its public product page either.
| Plan | Price shown publicly | What is included |
|---|---|---|
| Starter | Free | Up to 5 images per month; limited basic and advanced analytics |
| Explorer | Not displayed | 15 images per month; change detection and clustering; time series up to 1 year; alerts for up to 5 AOIs |
| Pro | Not displayed | Full feature access; custom band combination builder, 3D terrain modeling and time-lapse animations |
Official pages disagree on Pro resolution. The product page lists unlimited live and historical imagery at up to 5 m resolution. The FAQ instead lists Pro imagery at 10-100 m/pixel resolution. High-resolution commercial imagery is not included in any subscription and is priced by provider, resolution, area of interest and delivery time.
| Tier | Resolution per pixel | New tasking from | Archive from |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra-high | 30–40 cm | $24 per km² | $16 per km² |
| Super-high | 50–60 cm | $12 per km² | $11 per km² |
| Very high | 70–80 cm | $12 per km² | $4.5 per km² |
| High | 1–1.5 m | $10 per km² | $1.7 per km² |
No subscription is needed: you create a LandViewer account, choose your area, pick archive scenes or set up tasking, and order. The downloadable price list prices tasking in Standard, Priority and Emergency tiers and sets a minimum AOI in km² for each satellite, so a small site can be billed for a larger minimum area.
All subscription fees and one-time payments are charged in US Dollars and are non-refundable. Subscriptions renew automatically on each monthly or yearly anniversary. To stop renewal, you must log into your account and cancel your subscription.
EOSDA says it uses AES-256 encryption for data at rest and SSL/TLS encryption for data in transit. The EOSDA application is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), and the ISO and SOC certifications EOSDA cites belong to AWS rather than to EOSDA itself.
Partly. LandViewer has a free Starter plan with up to 5 images per month, and Crop Monitoring offers a free Gift field of up to 300 ha. High-resolution scenes, paid plans and API access cost extra.
No. A LandViewer account is enough to buy archive scenes or order tasking.
No. They are the latest still images from a satellite pass, published minutes to hours after capture.
Yes. LandViewer connects to GIS tools via WMS and exports GeoTIFF, KMZ or JPEG, and the REST API returns JPEG, PNG or GeoTIFF rasters.
The terms say subscription fees and one-time payments are non-refundable, including fees charged before cancellation takes effect.
