SANCHO will contribute to GMES as an in-situ element, complementing satellite observation, to which it will contribute improved image refreshment times and greater resolution in limited areas.
SANCHO has redirected its objectives toward the development of medium-altitude operational systems as of 2008, incorporating mature technologies, as an intermediary step toward the contribution to vehicles operating at high altitudes. SANCHO is led by INSA and INTA, and has a group of significant companies in aerospace, TIC and environment sectors, as well as in the development of alternative power sources .
