Our Global Network
GeoEye 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 GeoEye's highest level of international distribution partner consisting of both commercial and government organizations. They operate within a GeoEye-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 GeoEye'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. GeoEye receives satellite imagery product orders from Master Resellers, and delivers products to them for distribution to their channel partners and customers.
