SPOT-6/7 Full Archive & Tasking & SPOTMaps 2.5
Jan-2012
SPOT 6 and 7 form an EO constellation, together with Pleiades-1A/1B, improving on the imaging capacity of their predecessor SPOT 5, while ensuring SPOT data continuity with their 60 km swath. SPOT 6 and 7 offer 1.5 m resolution in natural colour, a daily revisit to any point of the globe and can be programmed for stereo and tri-stereo acquisitions for 3D terrain modelling. ESA offers access to worldwide SPOT6-7 data (both archived and new acquisitions) and to OneAtlas Living Library via the TPM scheme. - Read more
