Earth segments from a satellite mission

Exprivia designs, builds and manages highly reliable space systems dedicated to the acquisition, processing and distribution of data generated by Earth observation satellites. For over forty years, we have contributed to major European missions, transforming continuous data streams — from optical, multispectral, hyperspectral and SAR radar sensors — into essential information for monitoring the planet, managing emergencies and ensuring environmental safety.
Thanks to an integrated technological ecosystem, our Payload Data Ground Segments (PDGS) orchestrate every phase of the data lifecycle: from real-time reception to metadata extraction, from instrument calibration to scientific validation, right through to widespread distribution to the user community. Scalable cloud architectures, advanced workflow managers and automated quality processes ensure high processing capacity, operational continuity and maximum reliability, even in mission-critical contexts.
Our solutions handle extreme volumes and speeds, with systems capable of managing hundreds of gigabits per second, processing tens of terabytes per day and coordinating thousands of parallel processes using containerisation techniques, Kubernetes orchestration and GPU acceleration. Exprivia’s operations teams guarantee 24/7 service, 365 days a year, monitoring SLAs and KPIs and carrying out corrective and evolutionary maintenance on proprietary and third-party software.
