Description and optional configurations for the assured capacity offering
The Assured Capacity offering provides definitive acquisition of new hyperspectral imagery data covering a client's specific area-of-interest (AOI) over a designated time-of-interest (TOI) period. The Assured Capacity offering has a first-come first-served basis business logic and Assured Capacity provides the highest tasking priority available from Wyvern.
Since the future imaging capacity is being pre-reserved this effectively means the Assured Capacity imaging collection attempts are given the highest top scheduling priority and cannot be preempted or bumped by other client orders. Consequently, constellation tasking orders that are placed using the lower priority Standard Tasking or Premium Tasking offerings can be preempted by Assured Capacity orders. The Assured Capacity offering also includes the highest expedited delivery priority with Permanent Image Exclusivity (perpetual archive library withhold) for all new tasking imagery data products so clients have exclusive access to their HSI data products.
Assured Capacity – Data Collection Operations
The product ordering methodology for the Assured Capacity offering involves clients first sharing their AOIs and TOIs with Wyvern, a feasibility analysis study is executed by Wyvern to determine amount of available imaging capacity over the future time period, then a contractual agreement is executed in order to finalize the client's purchase of the future imaging capacity. The product framing for the Assured Capacity offering is scene-based where the full image scenes collected to cover the client's areas-of-interest (AOIs) are delivered and product pricing applies to the total area size of the valid imagery pixels within the full image scene. For the Assured Capacity offering the full image scenes that cover the rectangular area of imagery required to cover the AOIs are delivered and invoiced based on the total square kilometres area of the full scene. The dimensions of any given Assured Capacity imagery data product scene may vary depending on optimization of new imaging collection to cover client's AOIs and TOIs. Furthermore, as determined during the feasibility study Wyvern may propose collection of extended swath length scenes to cover multiple AOIs geographically clustered near one another with a single long image scene strip of data. Assured Capacity clients get access to Wyvern's highest level of customer service support and all collected imagery data products are delivered regardless of cloud cover.
Assured Capacity – Cloud Cover Policy
The cloud cover policy for Assured Capacity offering is that all collected tasking imagery data products that pass other quality assurance checks and align with documented standard product specifications are delivered regardless of image cloud cover. The Assured Capacity offering provides the highest priority of tasking via pre-reservation of future imaging capacity. These are collection opportunities designed for persistent monitoring. Therefore, all new imagery data products collected are delivered in order to maintain predictable and persistent image collection schedule. Consequently, imagery data products that are collected for the Assured Capacity offering with up to 100% cloud cover including saturated white pixels will constitute valid imagery data products that are delivered and invoiced accordingly.
Assured Capacity – Order Cancellation Policy
Since the Assured Capacity offering involves the pre-reservation of future imaging collection opportunities the product ordering terms & conditions are delineated in the associated contractual agreement and ad hoc order cancellations are not allowed by default since Wyvern must dedicate future imaging capacity across the satellites in the Dragonette constellation.
