Pléiades - Model Neo - High Resolution Optical Imagery Systems
From Imagery- Optical and Radar Data
Airbus’ most advanced optical constellation, with four identical 30cm resolution satellites with ultimate reactivity, optimises each step of the acquisition and delivery cycle. From 2020, Airbus will reshape the Earth observation-based services with Pléiades Neo, the new optical 30cm resolution constellation.
Products Details
Four identical new generation satellites will join the already world-leading Airbus constellation of optical and radar satellites to offer enhanced performance. Entirely funded, manufactured, owned and operated by Airbus, Pléiades Neo is a breakthrough in the Earth observation domain. It will bring customers with top-level service over the next decades. Each satellite will be adding half a million km² per day to Airbus’ catalogue. The associated images will be available straight from your Direct Receiving Station and through our digital platform, OneAtlas.
