EOS SAT-1

EOS SAT-1 (also known as EOSSAT-1 or AgriSat-1) is an agricultural Earth observation satellite operated by EOS Data Analytics (EOSDA) and built by Dragonfly Aerospace. Launched on 3 January 2023 into a sun-synchronous orbit at 540 km altitude and 97.43-degree inclination, the satellite began delivering imagery from May 2023.^[1][2]

The primary payload is the DragonEye multispectral camera, providing 11 spectral bands including RGB, two NIR channels, three red-edge channels, water vapour, aerosol, and panchromatic bands at 1.4 m panchromatic and 2.8 m multispectral ground resolution over a 22.2 km swath.^[1][3] This spectral configuration targets precision agriculture applications including crop type identification, crop stress monitoring, and phenological tracking.

EOS SAT-1 flies on the Dragonfly Aerospace uDragonfly microsatellite platform and achieves a 5-day revisit interval as a single satellite. EOS SAT planned as a seven-satellite constellation; revisit improves as satellites are added.^[1] Total spacecraft mass is approximately 178 kg.^[1]
