eoVision

What eoVision does

eoVision GmbH is a Salzburg-based, privately held Austrian company (11-50 employees) that produces and integrates digital maps and remote sensing data into published information products. Its core offering is a curated catalog of high-resolution satellite imagery packaged as large-format books and atlases (Bildbände und Atlanten) organized by theme — including climate change (KLIMA IM WANDEL), deserts (WÜSTEN), human impact (NEW HUMAN FOOTPRINT), Europe (EUROPA), and cities (CITIES) — alongside calendars, posters, and educational materials such as the ESA-Schulatlas and children's lines 'one earth kids' and 'one Space kids'.

The underlying technology stack is content-centric rather than software-centric: eoVision sources high-resolution satellite imagery through partnerships with major operators including Airbus Defence and Space, Digital Globe, and European Space Imaging, then applies editorial curation, cartographic design, and expert scientific commentary to produce physical and licensed media products. Complementary services include cartography, remote sensing, and geoinformatics consulting, exhibition rentals of satellite image displays, and image rights licensing. There is no indication of proprietary software platforms, APIs, or AI/ML pipelines.

Revenue mechanics are spread across four streams: (1) one-time retail and wholesale sales of books, atlases, calendars, and posters through the e-commerce storefront and book retailers; (2) professional consulting in cartography, remote sensing, geoinformatics, and R&D; (3) licensing and foreign-rights royalties on satellite imagery and publications; and (4) exhibition and rental services. Distribution is international, with the storefront localized in six languages (German, English, French, Italian, Spanish, Arabic). The company serves educators, students, environmental organizations, and general consumers; no enterprise anchor customers or recurring SaaS contracts are disclosed.
