Director Commercial Optical Sensing Systems, ITT Exelis

Exelis’ Long History of Commercial Remote Sensing Solutions

› ITT Exelis provides sensor subsystems and imaging payloads for U.S. commercial remote sensing providers ‒ Designed and built the entire imaging payload

for IKONOS, GeoEye-1 and GeoEye-2

IKONOS: 0.7 m telescope and outer barrel assembly; pan and 4 bands MS sensor

GeoEye-1: 1.1 m telescope and outer barrel assembly; pan and 4 bands MS sensor

GeoEye-2: 1.1 m telescope and outer barrel assembly; pan and 4 bands MS sensor
