In our fast-changing world, satellite imagery provides additional information to monitor environmental events and implement sustainable solutions. With the largest constellation of optical and radar commercial Earth observation satellites, Airbus Space Digital is a key provider of data and knowledge.
In line with Airbus sustainable actions, Airbus contributes to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, by providing key Earth observations data from space.
Sustainable economy
Sustainability aims at preserving the Earth’s resources production capacity. Today, many initiatives are booming for the maintenance of a livable environment balanced with economic and social developments on a planetary scale.
Satellite imagery supports sustainable solutions by providing statistical data over territories, mapping and monitoring human practices, supporting innovation or simply as a witness to change. Such information is very useful to improve policies and to draw sustainable plans.

Environmental events
Benefitting from a vertical point of view, satellite imagery offers a holistic perspective on natural events like fires, floods, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, cyclones and climate change. Through the analysis and interpretation of satellite imagery, a wealth of technical or scientific data can be obtained, including measurement of distances, surfaces, directions, and activity levels, to name a few. This data serves as a foundation for assessing the impact of these event.
