Applications
SPOT Scenes are intended for:
- geometric image processing,
- photo-interpreting,
- thematic studies.
SPOT Scenes are available with the following options:
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
Resolution and spectral mode |
 |
Depending on the level and detail required for specific applications:
| Black and white |
Colour |
| 2.5 m |
2.5 m * |
| 5 m |
5 m * |
| 10 m |
10 m |
| |
20 m |
* except level 1B
Size
Depending on the surface of the area to be studied:
- full scenes: 60 km long x 60 to 80 km wide, according to the viewing angle.
- extracts of scenes
(for 2.5 m and 5 m in black & white and in colour and for 10 m in colour):
- 1/2 scene : ~ 42 km x 42 km
- 1/4 scene : ~ 30 km x 30 km
- 1/8 scene : ~ 21 km x 21 km
Scene extracts can be positioned freely within a scene.

Location accuracy |
 |
Depending on the expected geometric accuracy:
- over flat ground it is greater than 350 m (1 sigma) for the SPOT 1 to 4 satellites (10 m for black and white and 20 m for colour),
- and drops to only 30 m (1 sigma) for SPOT 5 (2.5 m and 5 m in black and white and colour and 10 m in colour).
