EarthDaily is a Canadian commercial satellite constellation of optical imaging Earth observation satellites.[1][2][3] The constellation was developed by the Canadian company EarthDaily Analytics (EDA) with headquarters in Vancouver,[1][4] based on assets acquired from the defunct company UrtheCast.[5][6][7][8] Each of the 10 identical satellites is equipped with an optical imaging instrument observing over 22 spectral bands (six for visible light, six for near-infrared, six for shortwave infrared, and four for thermal infrared) with a spatial resolution of 5 m.[5] The constellation's first satellite was launched on Falcon 9's Transporter-14 mission on 23 June 2025.[1] Next six satellites are expected to be launched on Falcon 9's CAS500-2 rideshare mission on 3 May 2026.[9][2]
