On Demand Missions

Directly task a diverse network of sensors across Loft’s fleet.

Why On Demand Missions?

On Demand missions are the fastest path to accessing the space data you need to execute your mission. These flexible missions let customers directly task Loft’s satellites using our Cockpit mission control software to collect valuable data from a range of sensors already in orbit.

Fast

Get access to a wide variety of sensors via Cockpit mission control and start tasking LEO payloads to support your mission in a matter of days.

Simple

No need to build your own hardware or software – use Cockpit to directly task a wide variety of sensors and collect data that you own in perpetuity.

Reliable

On Demand Missions leverage proven satellites and payloads that are already operating in orbit, reducing technology risk for your mission.

How It Works

Cockpit mission control offers customers intuitive payload tasking through a web-based UI that enables users with no prior satellite operations experience to task Loft’s on-orbit resources. See how users execute tasking and start collecting valuable data via a typical requesting flow below.

On-Orbit Resources

By leveraging Cockpit’s intuitive and automated tasking UI, customers can securely task Loft’s satellites and leverage sensing, compute, and connectivity resources from across Loft’s fleet.

Each satellite carries a unique combination of imagers, software defined radios, CPUs, GPUs, and connectivity resources which can support a broad range of missions.

Task a wide range of sensors including: Panchromatic, Thermal Infrared, Multispectral VNIR, and Hyperspectral VNIR sensors.

Each spacecraft is equipped with a configurable RF payload that provides RF reception coverage across UHF, L-Band, S-Band, and more.

High-powered CPUs and GPUs allow customers to run data and processing-heavy AI apps at the edge – unlocking low-latency insights when you need them.

Access dozens of global ground stations to support a range of mission requirements or leverage an inter-satellite link for near real-time connectivity.
