The Earth Observation directorate of the European Space Agency (ESA) launched a new framework, the Scouts, to develop scientific missions for Earth Observation exploiting the new space initiative and complementing the well-established series of Earth Explorer research satellites. With this new family of small satellites, ESA intends to respond to the dynamism of a quickly evolving scientific and technological environment in the Earth Observation sector by reducing the time and cost to deliver demonstrations of novel EO techniques in the Earth sciences, taking advantage of new development methodologies, higher-risk approaches and existing assets.
Scout missions shall have a science focus with some innovation features (e.g. sensing technique, miniaturization, distribution of functions on various satellites), with the aim of providing incremental science either addressing niche applications on its own right or as complement to other missions (e.g. Earth Explorers, Copernicus Sentinels, Meteorology missions or Earth Watch missions).
