Natural Disaster Response

In September 2023, a high magnitude earthquake stroke south of Morocco causing countless losses. In this context, Airbus Pléiades Neo and SPOT satellites have been mobilised by the International Charter Space and Major Disasters to provide free satellite data to support disaster relief organizations.

Our emergency tasking allowed us to have a global and precious view of the damages that occurred in Morocco before the arrival of the emergency teams. Thanks to SPOT, 60km swath, we could easily assess the extent of the damages. On the other hand, Pléiades Neo high precision allowed the identification of destroyed buildings and usable roads that the emergency services could use. 

What our customers say

Our services are recommended by industry experts just like you

For this client there were three factors that were of critical importance: geospatial accuracy, time from capture to delivery of the final product and high quality. Airbus have consistently delivered on all three over a period of 3 years.
