TeLEOS-1 ("teleos" means "perfection" in Greek) is the first commercial Near Equatorial Orbit (NEqO) Earth Observation satellite of ST Electronics (STEE), Singapore.
Operating at an altitude of 550 km, TeLEOS-1 offers 1 m high-resolution satellite imagery with an average revisit time of 12 to 16 hours. This will enable decision makers and users convenient access to high temporal imagery and geospatial solutions to respond to time sensitive events, such as homeland security and border control, maritime situation awareness, and disaster monitoring and management around the equatorial belt.
