Goddard Space Flight Center worked with Flight Landata Inc., based in North Andover, Massachusetts, to develop a spectral imaging instrument for airborne applications. Through SBIR funding, Flight Landata demonstrated the operational capability of the instruments. Today, the company provides unclassified high resolution geospatial data for tactical military missions.
