Ball said Tuesday the DigitalGlobe Earth observation satellite will launch from Vandenberg Air Force Base via the Atlas V launch vehicle to provide high-resolution satellite imagery and geospatial data for both commercial and noncommercial applications.

WorldView-3 is equipped with a primary visible/SWIR sensor and 1.1-meter aperture telescope built by Exelis and the CAVIS instrument developed by Ball for monitoring atmospheric conditions.
