Planet Labs Subsidiary Sinergise Selected By European Space Agency To Build The Slovenia Space Resilience Node; Financial Terms Not Disclosed

Running under ESA’s European Resilience from Space Earth Observation program under Element 2, the 12-month pilot project will develop a prototype that automates the link between wide-area satellite change detection and high-resolution imaging tasking for Slovenia's Administration for Civil Protection and Disaster Relief within the Ministry of Defence.

Through this program, in partnership with software development company Lucis d.o.o., the SRN will autonomously analyze open Copernicus data and PlanetScope® imagery. When pre-set thresholds or anomalies are detected, the system will alert and trigger a high-resolution tasking request, including through Planet’s Pelican™ fleet. Processed imagery will populate directly into the emergency responder's map view within hours, providing rapid situational awareness for active crisis management.

While initially focused on demonstrating tip-and-cue workflows for wildfire management across Slovenia's 20,000 square kilometers, the architecture can be adapted to track floods, landslides, and other environmental hazards.

Planet, through its subsidiary Sinergise Solutions, has worked in collaboration with ESA for more than a decade, contributing to both Copernicus and the Third Party Missions programme.
