ICEYE and Safran Announce Strategic Partnership on Persistent Surveillance Capabilities

ICEYE and Safran join forces to deliver cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions for geospatial intelligence (GEOINT), forging a unique partnership to strengthen strategic autonomy for governments.

May 19, 2025. Safran.AI and ICEYE announce a long-term strategic partnership, leveraging their combined expertise to deliver advanced multisensor Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions that enable governments to achieve faster and more accurate decision-making in geospatial intelligence. This collaboration unites Safran.AI’s globally recognized proficiency in vision AI with ICEYE’s operation of the world’s largest commercial Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) constellation.

SAR satellite imagery allows the detection and classification of objects of interest at any time of the day and in all weather conditions, making it an invaluable resource for defense and intelligence applications, and particularly for monitoring military activities. ICEYE’s SAR satellite constellation stands out with its state-of-the-art sensors that deliver 25 cm resolution, high image quality, a high revisit rate, and an image delivery time of just a few hours.

Artificial intelligence on the battlefield has a major impact on both strategic and tactical levels. It accelerates the intelligence cycle by processing information in near real time and by extracting the most critical insights for time-sensitive operators.

This partnership will elevate Safran.AI’s capabilities in SAR imagery to unprecedented levels. Combined with its cutting-edge AI expertise in electro-optical satellite imagery, its new multi-modal AI solutions will enhance global persistent monitoring, enabling governments to make faster and more informed decisions.

This announcement also marks a significant milestone in the collaboration between ICEYE and Safran, building on the existing partnership, with Safran already providing ICEYE with space-to-ground link solutions for the rapid transmission of high-resolution imagery.

This partnership with Safran.AI allows us to maximize the value of our SAR data by integrating cutting-edge artificial intelligence technologies, said Rafal Modrzewski, CEO and Co-Founder of ICEYE. By adding ICEYE SAR imagery to Safran’s analytic capabilities we bring together the industry’s best imagery with the industry’s best multi-sensor image exploitation capability.

Jean-Yves Courtois, CEO of Safran.AI, emphasized:

This partnership represents a major breakthrough for our customers and the geospatial intelligence community. By closely collaborating with ICEYE, we will achieve automatic SAR image analysis performance comparable to those of our electro-optical image detectors. Furthermore, we will integrate both imagery sources through multi-modal AI, empowering governments with continuous monitoring capabilities tailored to both their commercial and sovereign data sources.
