follows the SPOT satellite series services. The identical twin satellites deliver very-high optical resolution imagery (0.5 m)
and offer a daily revisit capability to any point on the globe. ESA offers worldwide access to Pleiades 1A/1B data (both archive and new tasking) via the TPM scheme. Read more
