Pico, nano and micro class satellites (1 to 200kg) are being used in ever greater numbers by commercial providers (e.g. Skybox Imaging, Planet Labs), universities, domestic space agencies and military research. These classes of satellites have the greatest potential for growth in Earth Observation (EO) and telecommunications applications as they are highly suited for rapidly establishing high temporal and moderate spatial resolution constellations.
