Belgian Company To Provide Multispectral Imagers For Regional Earth Observation
Simera Sense has won a contract to provide multispectral imagers for a small constellation being designed to track wildfires, volcanic activity, and other regional priorities for the Canary Islands. The company will build eight MultiScape100 sensors for Telespazio’s Spanish subsidiary, which recently won a 21.3 million euro contract to be prime contractor for the Earth observation constellation. The full constellation aims to provide near-daily coverage of the Spanish archipelago and is scheduled to move into an operational and commercial data exploitation phase between 2029 and 2031. This development was first reported by SpaceNews.
