SPOT (Système Pour l’Observation de la Terre)

SPOT (Système Pour l’Observation de la Terre) is a satellite-based Earth observation system developed by France. It captures high-resolution images of the Earth's surface, which are used for applications like environmental monitoring, land management, and urban planning. These satellites orbit the planet and take detailed photographs from space, allowing scientists and organizations to track changes over time, assess natural resources, and support disaster response. SPOT's images are valuable tools for making informed decisions about the environment, agriculture, and infrastructure, providing critical data from space in a reliable and systematic way.
