Vision-1 to enable cutting-edge science and spur innovation
Vision-1 – which is the result of a collaboration between Airbus Defence and Space and Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd. (SSTL) – provides sub-metric imagery to support activities across many industries, including urban planning, agricultural monitoring, land classification, natural resource management and disaster monitoring.

Data - Project Proposal (Restrained)
Pléiades Neo full archive and tasking
Very High Resolution optical Pléiades Neo data at 30 cm PAN resolution (1.2 m 6-bands Multispectral) are available as part of the Airbus provision with twice daily revisit capability over the entire globe. The swath width is 14 km (footprint at nadir). Band combinations: Panchromatic one band Black & White image at 0.3 m resolution Pansharpened colour image at 0.3 m resolution: Natural colour (3 bands RGB), false colour (3 bands NIRRG), 4 bands (RGB+NIR), 6 bands Multispectral colour image in 4 bands (RGB+NIR) or 6 bands (also Deep blue and Red Edge) at 1.2 m resolution Bundle 0.3 m panchromatic image and 1.2 m multispectral image (4 or 6 bands) simultaneously acquired Geometric processing levels: Primary: The Primary product is the processing level closest to the natural image acquired by the sensor. This product restores perfect collection conditions: the sensor is placed in rectilinear geometry, and the image is clear of all radiometric distortion. Projected: The products are mapped onto the Earth cartographic system using a standard reference datum and projection system at a constant terrestrial altitude, relative to the reference ellipsoid. Ortho: The Ortho product is a georeferenced image in Earth geometry, corrected from acquisition and terrain off-nadir effects. All details about the data provision, data access conditions and quota assignment procedure are described in the Terms of Applicability available in the Resources section. As per ESA policy, very high-resolution imagery of conflict areas cannot be provided.
