Agriculture & Territories

Agriculture & Territories

Observe today to produce better tomorrow

Satellites provide continuous monitoring of crops, soils, water resources and the evolution of territories.

Combined with artificial intelligence, this data enables risk anticipation, resource optimisation and faster, better-informed decisions.

Context

A new perspective on territories.

Agriculture and territorial planning face major challenges: climate change, pressure on water resources, shifting land use, growing environmental requirements and yield volatility.

Satellites make it possible to continuously observe the evolution of crops, ecosystems and territories so as to act more quickly and effectively.

The challenges space technology addresses :

  • Climate change
  • Water pressure
  • Land-use change
  • Environmental requirements
  • Yield volatility
  • Territorial resilience

Capabilities

What space technology makes it possible to monitor.

Six observation families to understand, measure and anticipate the evolution of agricultural and natural territories.

Crop Health

Identify growth variations and areas of vegetation stress.

Water Resources

Monitor soil moisture levels and water requirements.

Climate Stress

Detect the impacts of droughts, frosts or heatwaves.

Land Use

Measure agricultural, urban and natural land changes.

Forests & Natural Spaces

Monitor the health of forest areas and ecosystems.

Natural Hazards

Anticipate floods, wildfires and ground movements.

Agricultural plots analysed by vegetation indices from space
Crop Health

NDVI analysis and identification of vegetation stress zones.

Satellite mapping of soil moisture for irrigation
Water Resources

Monitoring of soil moisture and optimisation of irrigation.

Use Cases

One architecture, tailored benefits for every stakeholder.

Farm Operators

Crop management and input optimisation.

Cooperatives

Large-scale production monitoring.

Local Authorities

Sustainable resource management and territorial planning.

Outcomes

Operational benefits.

Continuous MonitoringRegular observation of plots and territories.
Enhanced ResponsivenessEarly detection of anomalies.
Resource OptimisationImproved management of water and inputs.
Enhanced ResilienceAnticipation of climate impacts.

Sustainable Agriculture

Sustainable agriculture and food sovereignty.

In the face of climate and demographic challenges, the ability to produce more with fewer resources is becoming strategic.

Space technologies give farmers and decision-makers a global perspective, enabling them to better understand territorial dynamics and adapt their practices to environmental realities.

Perspectives

From the field to the territorial digital twin.

Space data now makes it possible to build dynamic digital representations of agricultural territories.

These models integrate crops, weather, water resources, infrastructure, biodiversity and economic data. They facilitate planning, risk management and investment decisions.
