Satellite imagery and Crop Analytics for more productive and sustainable agriculture
The agricultural market is increasingly challenging due to the ongoing need for more
The demand for geospatial information is estimated to more than double in the next ten years. Satellite-based Earth observation can play a key role in supporting this growth by delivering reliable, timely data, easy data access and innovative digital services.
We have a unique capacity and expertise to provide consistent crops analytics over large areas and time series thanks to proprietary overland / biophysical parameters chain, regardless of the data source. Get access to the largest satellite imagery archive on the market, in-season time-series data from 22m down to 50cm resolution, and Direct Receiving Stations.

What our customers say
ITU-CSCRS
“The TARBIL project requires high resolution imagery for each of the chosen agricultural crop types in its every phrenological stage in order to monitor crop status and estimate the yield. Thanks to the Airbus constellation, with its high spatial and temporal resolution, we can provide the TARBIL project its much needed country-wide satellite imagery."
Prof.Dr. Elif SERTEL
Director
ITU-CSCRS
Simplot
“Satellite imagery is the backbone of our SmartFarm® Precision Agriculture platform. The high-resolution, high-frequency imagery we receive from Airbus enables our crop advisors to quickly respond, and with more agronomic insight, to issues occur during the growing season.”

Avocados - From Farm to Table
To celebrate National Avocado Day, Airbus and Avocados From Mexico have teamed up to provide insight on the beautiful green superfood - Where do avocados come from? Why is this area so important, and what makes this food increasingly popular?
Simplot Relies on Airbus to Deliver Valuable Agronomy to Their Farmers
Simplot and Airbus jointly developed a scalable, automated system to collect, process, analyse and digitally display satellite imagery from Pléiades and SPOT 6/7.
Crédit Agricole Bank Relies on Satellite Imagery to Insure Grasslands Against Climate Risks
French grasslands cover an area larger than Greece. They provide grass and forage production, vital for French livestock. France is the number one European producer of beef and the number two producer of milk in Europe.
Estimating the Agricultural Waste Burning Area from the Sky
Inhalation of the air pollutants caused by agricultural waste burning can be very harmful to human health.
