Under this follow-on award, Vantor delivers and operates GEGD Pro, a secure, web-based geospatial intelligence platform that leverages Vantor’s Tensorglobe software suite. Designed exclusively for NGA as the primary commercial GEOINT platform for the U.S. government, GEGD Pro provides secure access to commercial and government furnished GEOINT content for more than 1.2 million government users across 250+ organizations.

GEGD Pro is a source-agnostic platform that integrates multiple geospatial data sources, including digital maps, refined persistent change model data, and other derived products. It also enables secure viewing, streaming, and analysis of petabyte-scale datasets, including commercial electro-optical, radar, and other NGA-procured data—a scale unmatched by other hosting platforms.

“GEGD Pro demonstrates how a flexible, integrated platform can support critical national security missions today while scaling for tomorrow,” said Susanne Hake, executive vice president and general manager, U.S. government at Vantor. “The platform delivers uninterrupted, trusted access to GEOINT, enabling faster, more informed operational decisions and delivering capabilities that can extend beyond a single agency to other mission partners.”

While GEGD Pro is NGA-specific, Vantor can configure its Tensorglobe spatial intelligence platform to serve as a foundation for other government and large enterprise programs. The platform’s underlying components—Cortex for intelligent tasking, Forge for production and fusion, and Nexus for content hosting and access—can be deployed in the cloud, on-premises, or at the edge for maximum flexibility and security. These components deliver core platform capabilities to any environment, orchestrating data flows across tasking, collection, content production, fusion, and AI-driven analytics.

Through this integration, Vantor becomes the first spatial intelligence company to deploy Google Earth AI models in air-gapped government environments. Vantor can fine-tune and retrain these models using a customer’s sovereign data—combining Vantor satellite imagery, third-party commercial imagery, and a customer’s own remote sensing sources—to unlock more advanced, integrated intelligence.

The Earth AI imagery models will also be integrated into Vantor’s mission applications, beginning with Sentry, to support persistent site monitoring and broad-area maritime monitoring workflows.

Google’s Earth AI models represent a breakthrough in geospatial AI, leveraging proven architectures trained on massive datasets of satellite and aerial imagery to accurately map buildings and roads, locate specific objects and features, assess post-event damage, semantically understand scenes, and more.

This integration marks the first time Earth AI imagery models have been deployed commercially against a dataset with the scale, accuracy, and temporal depth of Vantor’s AI-ready spatial foundation, which includes highly accurate, global-scale 2D and 3D data.

Combining the power of Earth AI imagery models with the scale, depth, and quality of Vantor satellite imagery, Vantor customers can rapidly unlock complex and valuable use cases.

Vantor’s spatial foundation covers virtually all of Earth’s landmass in 2D and 95% of the highest areas of interest in 3D. The foundation is supported by a 20-plus-year archive of high-resolution satellite imagery, including the deepest archive of 30 cm-class imagery available commercially. That foundation is continuously refreshed by Vantor’s imaging satellite constellation, which can revisit the same location on Earth up to 15 times per day, providing a consistent, current baseline for automated analysis and change detection.

The name Vantor speaks to how the company unlocks a real-time competitive advantage by delivering total clarity for missions across the space, air, and ground domains, ending the era of disconnected sensor platforms. Vantor is solving the most critical challenges across the defense and commercial sectors, including the urgent need for more advanced battlespace systems and the push to unleash autonomy across every industry.

The company addresses these challenges with multi-domain spatial intelligence solutions that integrate sensor data across satellites, drones, and ground-based assets to improve decision-making and drive autonomous operations at scale.

“Our business has celebrated significant milestones over the past two years—we launched six next-gen imaging satellites, introduced multiple first-of-a-kind spatial intelligence products, and signed partnerships with companies that are shaping the future of mixed reality and battlefield autonomy,” said Vantor CEO Dan Smoot. “Vantor represents a company transformed. We’re not just a satellite imagery provider. We’re delivering end-to-end solutions capable of connecting sensor data from every domain, providing a unified intelligence picture that they can turn into a competitive advantage.”

Vantor has recently partnered with leading innovators across the defense and commercial sectors to jointly build integrated intelligence solutions. Vantor is delivering the foundational spatial intelligence for Anduril’s next-gen mixed reality combat system designed for the U.S. Army’s Soldier Borne Mission Command Architecture (SBMC-A) program and signed partnerships with Saab and Taiwan’s AIDC to integrate Raptor into mission-ready systems designed for contested environments.

“We’re witnessing a fundamental shift in how governments and businesses need to understand and interact with the physical world,” said Smoot. “Delivering static satellite imagery and analytics through siloed web portals is no longer sufficient. Our customers need real-time intelligence about the world flowing directly into their systems to ensure that autonomous platforms can effectively navigate in the air and the ground, military units gain full command and control of the battlespace, and businesses effectively track critical assets in real time.”

As organizations race to deploy autonomous systems—for everything from the digital battlespace and global-scale site monitoring to automated mapmaking and disaster response—they are inundated by massive volumes of data coming from disconnected sensors across every domain. This data is often siloed, forcing customers to manually stitch it together before making sense of it all, delaying decision making and driving up costs. To solve this challenge, Vantor has unveiled Tensorglobe, an end-to-end spatial intelligence platform.

“Our customers aren’t relying on intelligence from a single source—they are investing in data and sensor systems from many partners, and they need all these capabilities to work together,” said Peter Wilczynski, chief product officer at Vantor. “The accuracy and global scale of our spatial foundation, combined with our fusion and production software, is a critical differentiator. We give customers the power to integrate raw pixels from any sensor into an AI-ready living globe that can connect every human and machine to the same ground truth.”

Built on the same technology that powers Vantor’s own operations, Tensorglobe enables customers to collect and fuse spatial data with Vantor’s foundation to create a living 3D replica of Earth capable of extracting coordinates with 1-meter accuracy. The platform’s three core elements—Cortex for automated satellite constellation orchestration, Forge for real-time sensor fusion, and Nexus for highly secure hosting and analytics—drive automation across the intelligence cycle to update and analyze a digital twin of the globe at the pace of change.
