Pleiades & Spot

SPOT/PLEIADES strategy and
assumptions
Spot Image Ground Segment will offer different services compliant with the ICD’s
defined in the study phase of HMA Project.
• These services allow an homogeneous and standardized access to SPOT and Pleiades
servers : Service Discovery, Catalog, Programming, Ordering, On line Data Access, User
Management.
• The maturity of different components of SISA IT involved in this Implementation Plan is very
variable : SPOT system under exploitation since 1986, Pleiades launch scheduled in 2009.
CNES / SPOT IMAGE overall strategy
• Step by step implementation
• Step 1 – SPOT services implementation on existing SISA IT infrastructure
• Step 2 – SPOT services integration with DAIL (end to end tests)
• Step 3 – Benchmarking of the overall process
• Step 4 – PLEIADES services upgrade
• Step 5 – PLEIADES services integration with DAIL
• Step 6 – SSALTO altimetric data Ground segment (Topex/poseidon, Jason 1, Jason 2, …)
services integration with DAIL
Moreover many other Spot Image IT components are also concerned by HMA services
and have to be taken into account in the overall strategy
• Production Workflow management,
• Business Workflow management (including : request for quotation, pricing and billing).
