Nemo HD (Nanosatellite for Earth Monitoring and Observation – High Definition) is an Earth observation satellite development by the University of Toronto's Space Flight Laboratory for the Slovenian Centre of Excellence for Space Sciences and Technologies (Space-SI).[1][2][3] It was launched to low Earth orbit in September 2020 Vega flight VV16 together with another Slovenian satellite named TriSat, as the first two space missions of Slovenia.[4][5][6][7] The spacecraft's primary instrument is a multispectral imager working in four spectral bands ground sample distance of 2.8 m on a swath of 10 km. The secondary imager works at a ground sample distance of 40 m with a wider field of view. Both instruments can also capture real-time video at 25 frames per second[5][6] The satellite's data are used in monitoring agriculture, forestry, urban development, and marine transport.[6]
