Pléiades Neo data collections consist of up to 0.3 m very-high resolution optical images. The two satellites carry the Pléiades Neo Imager which has a swath of 14 km. Pléiades Neo products are processed to level 1a, level 2a, and level 3.

Products are available in the following modes:

  • Panchromatic one band Black and White image at 0.3 m resolution
  • Pansharpened colour image at 0.3 m resolution: Natural colour (3 bands Red Green Blue), false colour (3 bands Near Infrared Red Green), 4 bands (RGB+NIR), 6 bands
  • Multispectral colour image in 4 bands (RGB+NIR) or 6 bands (also Deep blue and Red Edge) at 1.2 m resolution
  • Bundle 0.3 m panchromatic image and 1.2 m multispectral image (4 or 6 bands) simultaneously acquired


With the following processing levels:

  • Primary: The Primary product is the processing level closest to the natural image acquired by the sensor. This product restores perfect collection conditions: the sensor is placed in rectilinear geometry, and the image is clear of all radiometric distortion.
  • Projected: The products are mapped onto the Earth cartographic system using a standard reference datum and projection system at a constant terrestrial altitude, relative to the reference ellipsoid
  • Ortho: The Ortho product is a georeferenced image in Earth geometry, corrected from acquisition and terrain off-nadir effects


Samples of the Pléiades Neo products are available over La Crau, France, which you can use to preview what the data collections offer in order to assess their type and resolution. If you would like to compare Pléiades Neo products with other missions, download sample data from other Third Party Missions.

Each sample data ZIP file contains a .J2P of the processed product, and specifications of the acquired scene.

Pléiades Neo data collections

ESA is offering, for scientific research and application development, access to full archive and new tasking data from the Pléiades Neo mission, upon submission and acceptance of a project proposal.

ESA will support as many high-quality and innovative projects as possible within the quota limit available, therefore only a limited amount of products can be made available to each project.

The following collection is available:
