Overview
- Under the task order, Vantor will fuse its electro-optical imagery with third-party electro-optical and synthetic aperture radar to flag terrain, infrastructure and land-use changes.
- The work is issued through NGA’s Luno B vehicle, a five-year, approximately $200 million program providing broad access to commercial geospatial data and related analytic services with 13 companies eligible.
- Vantor previously won a Luno A task order under a separate five-year, roughly $290 million analytics contract that selected 10 companies to compete.
- Vantor says reliable automation depends on pixel-level alignment across sensors with differing resolutions, viewing angles and spatial accuracy to prevent change-detection errors.
- NGA is prioritizing automated change detection to support mapping, disaster and crisis response, regional conflict monitoring and humanitarian assistance.
