Here you can find archive imagery of the Spanish DEIMOS satellite.

The satellite is own by a Spanish private Company who depends from the Canadian Urthecast. They have two satellites DEIMOS-1 (with 22m GSD) and DEIMOS-2 which is a high resolution with 1.0m GSD in PAN and 4.0m GSD in MS. Like other vendors in order to come under the bar of the 1m, they'll reprocess (resampling) the image to 0.75 m GSD for PAN Channel and to 3.0 GSD for multi spectral channels. So the pixel size of the image you get is 0.75 m but the native resolution stays at 1.0m.. It's just like interpolation processing before selling imagery..





















This satellite has 5 channels (Pan + RGB + NIR), it can be an alternative to Airbus Pleiades but not really to DigitalGlobe imagery in my opinion.. All 5 channels are delivered separately and there is no "sensor model" for ArcGIS (even in the last version of 10.4) so you have to execute a pan-sharpening processing before utilizing the imagery...







Here the official description

The DEIMOS-2, owned and operated by Deimos Imaging, is an agile satellite for cost-effective, dependable very-high-resolution EO applications. It provides 75-cm pan-sharpened images with a 12-km swath from its orbital altitude of 620 km. The DEIMOS-2 is operated 24/7, with a network of four ground stations which assures a contact every orbit, and therefore the capacity of commanding the satellite and downloading data every 90 minutes. Launched in June 2014, it entered Initial Operational Capability in November 2014 and Full Operational Capability in May 2015.
