Description:Pléiades was the first European mission offering very high-resolution imagery at 50 cm resolution, comprising a two-satellite constellation in the optical region with twins Pléiades-1A and 1B. The two satellites operate in the same phased orbit and are offset at 180° to offer a daily revisit capability over any point on the globe. The mission has recently been expanded with the Neo satellites.
