Array Labs, Raytheon, Umbra form partnership focused on 3D mapping from space
January 27, 2025
Defense contractor Raytheon is partnering with satellite imaging startups Array Labs and Umbra Space to develop advanced three-dimensional Earth observation technologies for the commercial and government markets.
The companies announced Jan. 27 they will jointly offer a new product called Site3D, which combines synthetic aperture radar (SAR) technology with specialized mapping algorithms to create detailed 3D models of the Earth's surface.
SAR technology, which can capture images regardless of weather conditions or time of day, has gained increasing commercial adoption as satellite companies seek to provide continuous monitoring capabilities to customers.
Santa Barbara-based Umbra Space currently operates SAR satellites for Earth observation, while Palo Alto startup Array Labs is developing clusters of small radar satellites designed to work in formation to capture multiple angles of the same location simultaneously. The goal is to create a high-resolution 3D map of the Earth.
Raytheon and Umbra "will help us educate customers, bring 3D data products to market faster, and launch our own satellite imaging clusters," said Array Labs CEO Andrew Peterson. The partnership leverages Raytheon's experience in imagery processing.
"We're bringing precise 3D processing algorithms, developed over two decades of working with electro-optical imagery," said Erich Hernandez-Baquero, vice president of space intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance at Raytheon, based in Arlington, Virginia.
The collaboration is expected to create expanded market opportunities, according to Umbra.
The company's vice president of remote sensing Joe Morrison said Array and Raytheon "have transformed our data into a totally new product applicable to customers we never would have known existed, let alone reached, without them."

Umbra Space secures extended contract with National Reconnaissance Office
December 4, 2024
Umbra Space secured a contract extension with the National Reconnaissance Office, the company announced Dec. 4.
The California-based startup, which specializes in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite technology, has been working with the agency since 2022 under the Strategic Commercial Enhancements initiative.
The extension offers the company continued opportunities to demonstrate its technology and refine its offerings to meet government needs, said Joe Morrison, Umbra's vice president of remote sensing.
The financial terms of the contract were not disclosed.
Unlike traditional optical imaging satellites, SAR can penetrate clouds and capture high-resolution images in all weather conditions, day or night.
This makes the technology valuable for applications such as environmental monitoring, disaster response, maritime surveillance and intelligence gathering.
Interest in commercial SAR
Umbra currently operates five spacecraft, with more in production.
The company is positioning itself in the government and commercial markets, Morrison noted, developing satellites for its own constellation and for international government clients.
Umbra is one of several SAR imaging companies the NRO selected in 2022 for study contracts.
Companies' performance under these cooperative agreements positions them to compete in an upcoming "Commercial Radar Layer" program, a multi-year initiative modeled after the agency's Electro Optical Commercial Layer program, which awarded contracts to three firms in 2022.
The NRO, a U.S. intelligence agency responsible for designing, building and operating reconnaissance satellites, has a Commercial Systems Program Office that plays a pivotal role in integrating technology from private industry into national security operations.
"The beautiful thing about the NRO is that they're incredibly meritocratic," Morrison said. "They don't reward bluster or marketing. They reward performance."
Morrison credited the NRO's expertise with helping commercial firms navigate the complex demands of government markets. "If you can go in humbly and ask, 'What do you need?' they will tell you exactly what they need to see."
Under the NRO's Strategic Commercial Enhancements initiative, Umbra is also working with the agency to provide radio frequency (RF) data collected by its SAR satellites that can be used to locate and track electronic emissions.

Lawyers for 2 men framed in the FBI's Gov. Whitmer "Kidnapping Plot" hoax have filed a Writ of Mandamus seeking declaratory and injunctive relief - these men, Joe Morrison and Paul Bellar were tried at the state level. They were moved on the eve of their appeals to federal facilities across the country.
They are being prevented from speaking to their attorneys who have not even seen discovery as the appeal briefing deadline is imminent - these men are being denied their rights. Where is the
