9 February 2001Ball global imaging system for Earth remote sensing
12 The BGIS 2000 was developed by Ball for submeter remote imaging of the Earth surface. Ball is presently building 2 of these systems for the EarthWatch QuickBird Program. The first system will be launched in the Fall of 2000. This paper will detail the system design, and performance characteristics.
