Leverage unrestricted access to monitor energy facilities worldwide
The European Commission has taken a bold stance in building framework for carbon neutrality by 2050 with ambitious benchmarks by the year 2030. With tremendous investment going into new infrastructure and environmental monitoring along with considerable funding for the “Green Deal”, very high resolution (VHR) satellite imagery is poised to play a large role in the success of these initiatives.
Regular monitoring with VHR satellites is a smart and cost-effective way to keep an eye on your (and your competitors’) assets, explore new operations and prove compliance. The ability to integrate with off-the-shelf and custom software proves crucial for energy providers and analysts around the globe.
As the leading supplier of VHR imagery and the only supplier of 30 cm resolution to European data access programs, European Space Imaging is your trusted satellite imagery project partner.

DETAILED Inspection
Very high resolution satellite imagery is clear enough to show infrastructure details such as small pipes and peices of equipment. This allows precise monitoring of on-site assets. It is ideal for:
- Monitoring Righ of Way encroachment
- Equipment inventory
- Calculating reserve stocks
- Assessing damages
- Analysing infrastructure worldwide
- Optimising on-site inspections
Vegetation Management
European Space Imaging offers more spectral diversity and better spatial resolution than any other satellite imagery provider – allowing you to see more of what is actually happening on your land. A vegetation classification map, as depicted here, is derived from multispectral and stereo imagery.
The stereo imagery provides tree height data and the multispectral imagery can give insights such as plant species and health. This enables vegetation encroachment monitoring and environmental impact analysis for compliance purposes.
RESPOND TO CHANGE
VHR satellite images can be used in software utilising Artificial Intelligence (AI) to automatically detect and analyse changes. This rapidly growing technology offers “off-the-shelf” solutions for a number of applications including infrastructure asset monitoring.
The ability to remotely monitor Third Party Encroachment (TPE) along energy corridors with a high level of detail, accuracy and automation saves asset managers precious time and resources when organizing on-site inspections.

VHR Satellite Images for Wildfire Monitoring
High temperatures are breaking records, vegetation is drying up, and catastrophic wildfires are raging across Europe. Emergency responders are already turning to satellite imagery for fire monitoring and damage analysis – but few know its full potential. Near Real-Time (NRT) capabilities deliver critical images just 15 minutes after collection. Intraday imaging captures a fire as it develops throughout the day. And 8-band multispectral imagery lets responders see through haze, light fog, and other atmospheric conditions – including wildfire smoke itself.
Earth Observation Turns Ecological Targets into Measurable Outcomes: How Satellite Imagery Supports Compliance with Europe’s Nature Restoration Regulation
The EU’s Nature Restoration Regulation (NRR) entered into force in 2024 and set legally binding targets to restore degraded ecosystems across Europe. With National Restoration Plans due in September 2026, Member States face an urgent question: how do you map, plan and monitor restoration across millions of hectares in a consistent, verifiable way? Earth Observation (EO) – and Very High Resolution (VHR) multispectral satellite imagery in particular – is increasingly the answer.
EUSI Upgrades German Ground Segment to Enable Europe’s Fastest Request-to-Receive Satellite Intelligence via Secure Web and API Platform for Defence and Emergency Agencies
European Space Imaging (EUSI) announced a major upgrade of its satellite ground segment and cloud infrastructure, further accelerating its industry-leading satellite tasking and intelligence delivery capabilities through the secure ATOM™ web and API platform. The platform, in combination with EUSI’s Rapid Satellite Intelligence (RSINT) program, enables satellite tasking up to 30 minutes before image acquisition and delivery of imagery within 15 minutes of collection.
