Is there a technical limitation that allows a maximum resolution of 50cm? Or could you potentially go to 25 or 10 just by dialing up the zoom level on the satalites?
The technical limitation from space is at around 10cm. Current commercial offerings go down to 30cm, but there are companies like Albedo that are aiming at having satellites in very-low earth orbit, resulting in 10cm imagery. Their imagery is expected to be on the SkyFi platform, once their satellites are in orbit.
