Space Data’s SkySat™ communications platform and related SkySite® technologies will provide an economical solution to filling gaps within existing terrestrial wireless communications coverage along the northern and southern international borders of the United States. A proven capability, Space Data’s SkySite® technology can support border patrol and control efforts with both VHF voice repeater and 900 MHz data services including GPS-based asset tracking. The responsive nature of the high-altitude wireless communications network means a targeted communications footprint can be activated over an area without terrestrial coverage within 30 minutes of identifying a critical need, as well as providing an economical 24/7 system that can be operated to consistently fill-in coverage gaps within all border zones.
