Description
Vantor is a spatial intelligence company, the rebranded continuation of Maxar Intelligence, that combines a satellite imaging constellation with software for fusing, analyzing, and delivering geospatial data. Its stated goal is to anchor sensor data from space, air, and ground to a shared, accurate spatial foundation, so defense, intelligence, and commercial customers can work from a common, current picture of the world.

The company operates its own imaging satellites and builds software that automates parts of the intelligence cycle, from tasking those satellites to producing, fusing, and analyzing the resulting imagery with AI. Its platform layer, Tensorglobe, lets customers build what Vantor describes as an AI-ready living globe, supported by Cortex for multi-constellation tasking orchestration, Forge for real-time spatial data fusion, and Nexus as a gateway into the combined data.
On the data side, Vantor's WorldView line provides tasking access to satellite imagery, including 2D optical imagery, synthetic aperture radar produced with Umbra, and orbital and space imagery. Its Vivid line delivers pre-built, regularly refreshed basemaps at 15 centimeter and 30 centimeter resolution, plus 3D terrain and surface models and global vector features. Mission-specific software products include Raptor, aimed at GPS resilience for autonomous systems, and Sentry, a persistent monitoring product for predictive intelligence. The company states its imagery underlies about 90 percent of the foundational geospatial intelligence used by the U.S. government, and that navigation apps used by more than a billion people rely on its data.
Vantor sells to three main customer groups: defense, covering command and control and a shared operating picture; intelligence, covering multi-sensor ISR fusion; and commercial customers, covering mapping, navigation, and infrastructure monitoring. It reports more than 60 government partners worldwide, roughly 7 million square kilometers of daily high-resolution imagery collection capacity, and 3D mapping covering more than 100 million square kilometers.
Vantor's public site is oriented toward enterprise and government engagement, with contact and partner-program forms, rather than self-serve signup, and it does not publish pricing. Access to its imagery, basemaps, and platform products is arranged directly with the company.
