E3 2010: Tom Clancy's HAWX 2 Preview - GeoEye High Resolution Imagery Featured in Article

From the few missions that I saw, the animations (mainly while still on the ground) need a lot of work. Same goes for the framerate which was very jittery when displaying a lot of ground from high above. Speaking of the earth below, it looks fantastic thanks to the same GeoEye technology that powered the first HAWX. Mountain ranges are very impressive and exhibit some cool depth and shadowing that clearly wouldn't be possible without the aid of GeoEye...

Resolution Modes: GeoEye-1's unsurpassed panchromatic image resolution of .41 meters (about 16 inches) means we can see an object the size of home plate on a baseball field. Once a panchromatic image is collected by GeoEye-1, it must be resampled to .50-meter resolution according to our current operating license with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) before it can be released commercially. After a multispectral image is collected at 1.65-meter resolution by GeoEye-1, it may be sharpened using information from the panchromatic mode (pan-sharpened) so that the final image is full-color with .50-meter resolution. These are the clear, accurate images that online maps users most often associate with GeoEye...

The History of Satellite Imagery - GeoEye 101 Site

Today, GeoEye operates a constellation of high-resolution Earth-imaging satellites that collects millions of square kilometers of map-accurate imagery every month...GeoEye-1 collects the highest resolution imagery available from any commercial satellite today – .41 meters or 16-inch ground resolution. From an orbit 423 miles in space, GeoEye-1 can discern an object on the ground the size of home plate on a baseball field and can map an object that size to within 16 feet of its true location on the surface of the Earth. However, the U.S. Government currently restricts public distribution of GeoEye-1 images to commercial markets to half-meter ground resolution. Launched in September 2008 from Vandenberg AFB, California, the 4300-pound GeoEye-1 satellite collects imagery that is unsurpassed in detail and accuracy. Anyone can see GeoEye-1 imagery in Google Earth or Google Maps.
