Since the first image was downloaded on January 1, 2001, ImageSat has been diligently improving its products and services.

In 2002, the Company enabled the imaging of sub-meter-resolution images by employing a process developed in-house, called Hypersampling (International Patent Application No.IL03/00354), in addition to EROS A's standard 1.8-meter resolution imagery.In 2002 and 2003, EROS ground stations were upgraded to improve imagery quality and processing.

The agility of the satellite has also proven efficient in obtaining multiple images of a single location in the same pass - an effective tool in creating DTM models for orthophotos.

Background of the EROS Program
The Ofeq high-resolution satellite-imaging program, on which the EROS family of satellites is based, was developed by the Space Technology Directorate of the MBT Division at Israel Aircraft Industries Ltd.(IAI).

ImageSat, a private, international joint venture was established in order to commercialize Ofeq's capabilities, through the EROS satellite program.ImageSat's business plan focuses on enabling governments and national security organizations to acquire their own domestic imaging capability, by securing the exclusive use of EROS over a designated footprint.
