From my casual glance, I can see only few images of particular spots and no timeline so that you can go back in history. Seems pretty rudimentary, like the 15 images you get from EOSDA LandViewer that you can only download a very low resolution thumbnail. Did you find the data helpful?

No.

Its frankly hilarious they think they can seriously put the words "SAR imagery from the world's largest SAR satellite constellation" on their homepage.

If money were being charged for it, some might call it "false advertising".

It looks to me more like a VERY limited subset of images from the satellite constellation in question.

Either that, or the constellation in question is minuscule.

Either way, something doesn't add up.

"Iceye" is a homophone nightmare. Ice? Icey? I? Eye? See? C? Sea?

It's pronounced "Ice eye".

According to the people I know from this company, the original use case was tracking the ice cover of the Northern seas, for both marine applications and climate research (the company is Finnish).

You forgot "Ice Ye" - the latest unexpected twist in the saga of Kanye!

Does that mean he became an agent on the streets? So if we unmask all of the ICE agents it might be like the finale of the Masked Singer?

I was thinking more of a Breaking Bad arc. Pulling off a decent Heisenberg would be a lot easier than some of the other stuff he's done..
