SPOT-6 (Systeme Pour l’Observation de la Terre — Satellite for Observation of Earth), launched on September 9, 2012 and SPOT-7, launched on June 30, 2014, are operated by AirBus Defence and Space, France. These 2 satellites fly on a co-orbit with the high resolution Pleiades 1A and 1B constellation. With location accuracy better than 10 m (CE90) and a resolution of 1.5 m, SPOT-6 and SPOT-7 are the ideal solution for national mapping at 15,000 to 25,000.
