LEO Access Explorer
Visualising SSO vs MIO Coverage & Revisit Dynamics
The LEO Access Explorer demonstrates how orbital architecture shapes access, revisit frequency, and mission feasibility. This interactive environment compares Sun-Synchronous Orbits (SSO) and Mid-Inclination Orbits (MIO), illustrating how constellation design influences coverage across Australia and the Indo-Pacific.
Use the live satellite tracks to understand orbital geometry in motion, and activate the access heatmap to visualise aggregated next-24h access opportunities within defined off-nadir constraints.
Sun-Synchronous Orbit (SSO)
- Near-polar inclination (~97–98°)
- Consistent local solar time for repeatable observation geometry
- Strong high-latitude revisit and global coverage patterns
Mid-Inclination Orbit (MIO)
- Inclination typically ~40–60°
- Optimised for mid-latitude density
- Higher revisit frequency in targeted regions
