Another significant project under the ownership and operation of Twenty-First Century Aerospace Technology Co., Ltd (21AT) is BJ-3. This project consists of a pair of optical Earth observation satellites. BJ-3A was launched on June 11, 2021, while BJ-3B was launched on August 24, 2022. These satellites can capture images with a resolution as fine as 30 cm.

Another popular satellite imagery option in Timor-Leste is from Maxar Technologies. Maxar is known for its operation of the WorldView satellites constellation, which captures incredibly detailed imagery with a resolution as high as 30 cm. This high-quality imagery from Maxar is extensively utilized in a range of fields, such as defense, agriculture, and urban planning.

Other options include KOMPSAT-3 and KOMPSAT-3A, operated by the Korea Aerospace Research Institute, which provides high-resolution satellite imagery over Timor-Leste with a spatial resolution of up to 38 centimeters, and the Satellogic Aleph-1 constellation of satellites has developed a unique way to improve the spatial resolution of their panchromatic and multispectral imagery. Through their proprietary processing techniques, they can enhance the resolution of satellite imagery over Timor-Leste to 70 cm. This increase in collection resolution allows Satellogic to provide a product that maintains the original radiometric values while being more beneficial for various project requirements for customers in Timor-Leste.
