Earth Observation

Turning satellite data into actionable intelligence

Robust systems for secure, real-time Earth data in defense and civil missions

Earth observation allows us to better understand our planet, manage resources and enhance global security. At Sener, we develop advanced systems for earth observation satellites that provide reliable, high-resolution data for both civilian and military earth observation missions. We bring together our know-how in space systems, optics, electronics and guidance systems to support institutional and commercial programs worldwide.

We develop observation technologies designed for maximum mission assurance. From antenna deployment mechanisms to optical payload systems, our subsystems operate reliably in orbit, ensuring uninterrupted Earth monitoring. Whether it’s environmental surveillance or strategic intelligence, our systems deliver critical data with precision and resilience.

Why choose us

We combine decades of experience with an industrial mindset to deliver end-to-end earth observation solutions. Our equipment is fully qualified and proven in space, with seamless integration across communication, control and data systems. Clients choose us for our reliability, engineering depth and ability to meet complex mission requirements.

Dual-use technologies designed for scientific, governmental and military use

Our systems support dual-use missions that benefit both society and national defense. We have contributed to missions such as SpainSat NG, providing the technological backbone for secure and flexible observation platforms. Our COMINT and RF technologies are ideal for integration into multi-domain surveillance architectures.

How we work

We cover the entire lifecycle of a project — from concept and detailed design to production, integration, qualification, and long-term support. We deliver complete solutions that combine mechanical, electrical, and software systems, all validated in our own facilities. 

Leaders in observation satellite mechanisms with 100% operational reliability

From pointing systems to calibration mechanisms, our electromechanical subsystems have been deployed in flagship observation missions with zero failures. We design, manufacture, test and qualify every system in-house, allowing us to meet stringent reliability and performance targets.

Looking down to Earth

We deliver advanced Earth observation systems, integrating precision mechanisms, antennas and optical subsystems for satellites. Our technologies support data accuracy in climate, environmental and resource monitoring missions. With in-house development and proven flight heritage, we ensure reliability and performance in Earth-focused institutional and scientific programmes across the globe.
