Pléiades Neo HD15
Better visual rendering for Satellite Imagery | Pléiades Neo HD15
Designed to enhance the visual rendering of Pléiades Neo imagery, HD15 brightens the colours of the imagery and provides sharper details for easier interpretation
Paris, Eiffel Tower - Pléiades Neo HD15
Designed to enhance the visual rendering of Pléiades Neo imagery, HD15 is produced by applying an in-house, proprietary algorithm that restores and refines existing features using Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.
This new product, derived from Pléiades Neo 30cm, brightens colours and enhances details for improved readability and interpretation. The information is intensified, thus making the visual rendering better, allowing linear features to also be easily identified.
Unlike conventional AI upscaling, HD15 performs image restoration rather than artificial enhancement, ensuring reliable, artefact-free results.
- Non-generative AI model, ensuring reliable and physically accurate enhancements
- Strictly controlled enhancement factors (x2) → 30cm to 15cm for optimal balance between resolution and realism
- Trained on an extensive aerial dataset to ensure consistent, high-quality results
- Advanced dehazing filter applied to improve contrast and reduce atmospheric distortion
- Developed using Airbus' expertise in satellite optics and imaging chains, ensuring that enhancements stay true to real-world physics
The scientific and industrial Earth Observation community widely recognises deep learning-based super-resolution as a trustworthy enhancement method for satellite imagery. Studies have demonstrated that AI-driven image restoration significantly outperforms classical algorithms, leading to a 20% improvement in both visual and quantitative image quality metrics for Pléiades Neo HD15.

Sales Manager - Geoimage
The quality of Pléiades Neo HD15 surpasses the competition. The HD15 super-resolution does not add or remove any additional information, but it does improve the visual rendering of textures and contours and can correct artefacts, making photo-interpretation much easier.
