Application campus Bingladesh chittagong from Pléiades Neo

Pléiades Neo Applications Campus

Through Pléiades Neo Applications Campus, CNES and Airbus support third parties in their development of innovation projects based on Pléiades Neo data, to facilitate their set-up of cutting-edge geospatial services using Pléiades Neo

The application campus

In 2024 and 2025, the CNES and Airbus have launched four calls for projects. Each call has invited proposals for space innovation projects using Pléiades Neo data, evaluated by a CNES – Airbus committee. The following selection criteria were assessed:

  • Commercial potential of the proposed application
  • Innovative nature of the proposed solution
  • Relevance of Pléiades Neo data for the proposed application
  • Involvement of the future service operator and end users

The Applications Campus offers a unique opportunity to de-risk your innovation projects and refine your business model, with access to Pléiades Neo data.
