IRIDE’s system consists of six constellations equipped with sensors for Earth observation. It is one of the most complex and comprehensive Earth observation satellite systems in the world.
Each of the six constellations carries different types of sensors, from radar and optical to hyperspectral and multispectral instruments, which detect a wide range of characteristics of the Earth’s surface, providing the core inputs for the data products and services offered by IRIDE.
The overall IRIDE constellation is expected to be operational by June 2026.
