Innovation et technologies pratiques

Technology relevant to space and Earth observation and climate and hazards: what it can do, the constraints it faces and its consequences for people and institutions.

02Approche

Evaluate before adopting.

  1. 01

    Need

    Which problem does the technology address, and for whom?

  2. 02

    Preuves

    What has been demonstrated, under what conditions, and what remains untested?

  3. 03

    Constraints

    Cost, skills, infrastructure, data and governance requirements.

  4. 04

    Consequences

    Effects on safety, rights, equity and the environment.

03Technologies under assessment

What could change Earth observation practice, and what it still has to show.

TechnologieWhat it could changeWhat remains to be shown
Small-satellite constellationsFrequent revisitCalibration, data terms, continuity
Hyperspectral missionsMaterial and vegetation detailProcessing, validation
Foundation models for imageryFaster mappingAccuracy in new regions, bias
Space situational awarenessCollision avoidanceData sharing between operators
04Build and test

From idea to tested capability.

Promising work can be built in Foundry and tested under controlled conditions through Univers. No technology is described as proven before it has been tested and reviewed.
