Definition
- The satellites are positioned at 620km altitude, operated as a genuine constellation on the same orbit and phased at 90° from each other and hence offer an intraday revisit capacity anywhere on Earth (at least twice a day) and an acquisition capacity of 2M km² per day (with four satellites). The location accuracy is 3.5m CE90 (native). The satellites are equipped with two new spectral bands: red-edge for crop and vegetation monitoring, and deep blue for bathymetry applications. The satellites are also equipped by Laser Communication Terminals through the SpaceDataHighway (EDRS) allowing reactive tasking. (en)
