RADARSAT International : RADARSAT International was founded in 1989 as a joint venture to distribute imagery from the RADARSAT satellite. Partners included: SPAR Aerospace, MacDonald Dettwiler and Associates, COM DEV Limited, and Lockheed Martin Astronautics.

In 1999, MacDonald Dettwiler and Associates (MDA) purchased out the other shareholders, and RADARSAT International became a fully owned subsidiary of MDA.

In 2005, RADARSAT International was rebranded to MDA Geospatial Services International.
