Meet Bernie. Bernie Sanders is a Democratic candidate for President of the United States. In 2006, he was elected to the U.S. Senate after 16 years as Vermontâs sole congressman in the House of Representatives. Bernie is now serving his second term in the U.S. Senate after winning re-election in 2012 with 71 percent of the vote.
Satellite imagery at 30-centimeter resolution provides the clearest, most detailed view of the ground from space. See sample imagery to find out for yourself. If you use commercial satellite imagery to map, monitor or assess situations, materials, or infrastructure, you are probably accustomed to 50-centimeter spatial resolution.
Note that some of these satellites are separated from each other by as little as one tenth of a degree longitude. While that may seem like very little separation, and it is, at geosynchronous altitude (nearly 36,000 km), this corresponds to an inter-satellite spacing of approximately 73 km.
