An Arianespace Vega C rocket, designated VV27, will launch the CO3D (Constellation Optique 3D) into orbit. It is an Earth observation satellite constellation by CNES consisting initially of four satellites, which will deliver 50cm resolution stereo imagery across the world on a daily basis. The data acquired will feed a cloud-based processing chain operated by Airbus and integrating CNES’ algorithms, to produce a cutting-edge 3D map of the Earth’s landmass. - The Airbus-made CO3D satellites are based on the S250 optical bus and weigh around 285kg each. Equipped with full electric propulsion, the four spacecraft will operate for eight years, in pairs orbiting on opposite sides of the Earth, with the satellites in each pair 100km apart. The CO3D satellites will join Airbus’ fleet of optical and radar satellites, strengthening the company’s ability to meet the growing needs of very demanding applications. Inaugurating a generation of highly innovative and all electric platforms derived from the OneWeb bus, these extremely agile satellites will instigate a new way of acquiring, processing and transferring images to the ground. Together with the Pléiades-Neo satellites, the CO3D constellation will offer unrivalled refresh rates for very high-resolution imagery. In the future, the constellation might be expanded to twenty satellites. - Delayed from June. Webcast: https://www.arianespace.com/road-to-space/
