Imagery-Satellite-SPOT 2022

The NSW SPOT6/7 imagery product is a state-wide satellite imagery product provided by Geoimage Pty Ltd for NSW Government. The images were captured September 2021 through to March 2022. The imagery scenes used to create the NSW mosaic includes Lord Howe Island. This imagery data set has been acquired through GeoImages Pty Ltd and Airbus Defence and Space.

SPOT imagery products offer high resolution over broad areas using the SPOT 6/7 satellites. A SPOT satellite acquisition covers large areas in a single pass at resolutions up to 1.5m. Such precise coverage is ideal for applications at national and regional scales from 1:250,000 to 1:15,000. SPOT 6/7 also includes the benefits of the near-infrared (NIR) which enables applications for detection of features not visible to the human eye, such as detecting and monitoring vegetation health.

Data products supplied for all of NSW are:

  1. State-wide mosaic

  2. 100k Mapsheet tiles (GDA94 and GDA2020)

  3. Multi spectral scenes (GDA94 and GDA2020)

  4. Pan sharpened scenes (GDA94 and GDA2020)

  5. Panchromatic scenes (GDA94 and GDA2020)

  6. Shapefile cutlines of statewide mosaic

The statewide mosaic is provided as a Red Green Blue (RGB) band combination; contrast enhanced lossless 8-bit JPEG2000 file (456gb in size). Individual 100k mapsheet mosaics contain BGR+NIR band combination; unenhanced 16-bit GeoTIFF format tile.

The NSW mosaic is available from internal DPE APOLLO Image Webserver for DCCEEW employees.

The 4band 100k mapsheet tiles are available for download from JDAP. The rectified multispectral, pan sharpened and panchromatic scenes are available for download from JDAP (pending)
