Our Global Network
DigitalGlobe has established a worldwide partner network comprised of regional partners
and satellite receiving ground stations focused on achieving unequaled results for
our customers. Our global network, not including military and government ground
stations, consists of:
Regional Affiliates
Regional Affiliates are DigitalGlobe's highest level of international distribution partner
consisting of both commercial and government organizations. They operate within
a DigitalGlobe-defined exclusive sales territory and geographic imaging territory. Each
affiliate installs and operates ground station equipment, which allows them to locally
create and manage satellite collection plans, and process satellite data into products
and services. Ground stations also allow Regional Affiliates to maintain extensive
data archives for producing and delivering products to regional markets. Some ground
stations include antenna equipment, while others do not.
Master Resellers
Master Resellers are among the top tier of DigitalGlobe's Channel Partners. Master Resellers,
similarly to Regional Affiliates, have exclusive distribution rights to all or a
group of customers within a given sales territory can appoint other Channel Partners
within their territories. Unlike Regional Affiliates, Master Resellers do not install
ground station equipment or directly participate in collection planning. DigitalGlobe
receives satellite imagery product orders from Master Resellers, and delivers products
to them for distribution to their channel partners and customers.
