ATK has won a contract to help the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency study new technologies aimed at delivering warfighters surveillance data using small satellites.

The company will partner with Logos Technologies and the University of Southern California’s information sciences institute on the SeeMe program study contract, ATK said Monday.

Tom Wilson, vice president and general manager of ATK’s space systems division, said the company intends to use similar technology from the Tac-Sat3 and ORS-1 programs for SeeMe.

ATK has developed spacecraft systems and tactical ISR systems (intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance) for the TacSat and ORS programs, Wilson said.

According to the company, its new A100 satellite product line could help transition SeeMe technology to industry, research, and military operational markets.
