The European GMES (Global Monitoring for Environment and Security) initiative is in a preparatory phase before starting the implementation of its Earth Observation component. The GMES applications served by current multispectral sensors are mainly related to land cover and vegetation monitoring. There is now an identified need of continuity for the delivery of products to the End Users and a complementary need to improve the accuracy, reliability and affordability of these corresponding services. EADS Astrium propose to fly a superspectral optical sensor on-board a micro satellite to be seen as a forerunner of the further GMES system. Numerous analyses and definition studies on applications &services, mission requirements and corresponding spacecraft and sensors designs have been carried out in EADS Astrium for several years. This paper focuses on the justification and the definition of a simple, affordable and fast to launch system as a preliminary answer to the GMES land cover applications.
