## Editorial
NewSat multispectral camera is a four-band RGB/NIR passive optical camera family flown on Satellogic NewSat Mark IV and Mark V spacecraft.[^satellogic-markiv-datasheet][^nasa-csda-newsat-qa] The channel set covers blue at 480 nm, green at 545 nm, red at 640 nm, and near infrared at 825 nm across roughly 450-900 nm.[^satellogic-imagery-spec][^nasa-csda-newsat-qa] Mark IV imagery is a sub-metre product with 0.99 m GSD and about 5 km multispectral swath.[^satellogic-markiv-datasheet][^nasa-csda-newsat-qa] Mark V imagery in the same camera family is about 0.70 m GSD with roughly 6.5 km swath, so acquisition planning depends on the NewSat hardware mark assigned to the task.[^nasa-csda-newsat-qa] The sensor has demonstrated use for optical time-series change detection and vegetation-index mapping where repeat RGB/NIR imaging is sufficient for the analysis target.[^nasa-csda-newsat-qa][^satellogic-imagery-spec]
