OUR MISSION
Adapting industries and
regions to climate change
After more than 25 years’ experience in space applications, acquired within the Airbus group (first at Matra then Astrium / Infoterra / Spot Image), Marc Tondriaux and David Hello founded TerraNIS in March 2014.
TerraNIS was created with the ambition of providing geo-information services derived from satellite imagery, for use in viticulture, agriculture, environmental management and regional planning. In a context of necessary adaptation to climate change, TerraNIS has resolutely chosen to focus on the design and sale of decision-making tools for sustainable development. Today, TerraNIS has nearly 20 employees dedicated to the development and provision of our services, and around 25% of our sales are devoted to research and development. Our customers are located in France and Europe, but also in South America (where TerraNIS has a subsidiary in Chile), Africa and Asia.
PROFESSIONS AND EXPERTISE
Earth Observation for
agriculture & territories
Remote Sensing
Our main raw material is images, whether from satellites or other sources. Our core competence lies in our ability to select the right image for the right purpose, and to process it to extract accurate and relevant information. To do this, we use algorithms developed in-house or by our partners.
Proximity and Partnerships
We always strive to rely on local users to constantly improve our services. Thanks to them, we are able to adapt our methods and products to specific use cases (agricultural practices, regulatory frameworks, etc.). Likewise, we are always on the lookout for commercial or technical partners to enrich our offer and ensure local service.
Professions
We always strive to be as close as possible to the needs of the end-users of our services. That’s why our team includes people with dual skills in remote sensing and agronomy or land use planning, capable of understanding our customers’ challenges and meeting their expectations as effectively as possible.
Genericity
We strive to develop high-tech, value-added solutions that can be easily deployed in any territory. We can develop tailor-made solutions, but our credo remains genericity to offer services at the best price and with the best possible performance for our customers.
Location
We are present in France (Toulouse), but also in Chile!

OUR PARTNERS
We believe in the richness of
sharing knowledge and expertise
Most of the services designed and developed by TerraNIS are the fruit of collaborations with public or private partners, which you can discover below.
AIRBUS DEFENCE AND SPACE
As soon as TerraNIS was created, we signed a technical and commercial partnership agreement with Airbus Defence and Space (Intelligence division), enabling us to use Overland software for our Oenoview service. We are also collaborating on a commercial level to work together on export markets.
INSTITUT COOPÉRATIF DU VIN
The ICV group is our major partner in the development and marketing of the Oenoview service. The ICV group brings its winegrowing and oenological expertise to bear on providing a service tailored to the needs of industry professionals. The ICV Group is also the distributor of the Oenoview service throughout the South and South-East of France.
EURALIS
We have been working with the Euralis cooperative for several years to develop our Pixagri tool. Thanks to its agronomic expertise and consulting services, Euralis participates in the validation of our solutions based on field data, enabling us to be as close as possible to farmers’ needs and challenges.
OUR MEMBERSHIPS
At the heart of the space
and innovation ecosystem
By joining the various institutions and associations listed below, we maintain constant contact with the companies in our sector and keep abreast of all market trends and partnership opportunities.
Aerospace Valley
Aerospace Valley is a global competitiveness cluster, created in 2005 to develop the competitiveness of the aeronautics, space and embedded systems sectors in the Occitanie and Nouvelle Aquitaine regions at national, European and international level.
EARSC
EARSC – European Association of Remote Sensing Companies – is a European organization for the use of Earth observation technologies and the promotion of European companies using these innovative technologies.
Le Mas Numérique
The Mas Numérique is a demonstration site for innovative digital technologies used in viticulture, and a training tool for students and professionals in the sector.
La Chaire AgroTIC
The AgroTIC Chair is dedicated to digital agriculture. It operates within a philanthropic framework and is deeply rooted in education and pedagogy, notably through its link with the “AgroTIC” agronomic engineering specialization.
Agri Sud-Ouest Innovation
The Agri Sud-Ouest Innovation competitiveness cluster meets the challenges of tomorrow by offering business leaders and researchers the opportunity to build collaborative research and development projects, thereby creating value and jobs in the region through the development of new products.
COPERNICUS RELAY
Proud to be a
Copernicus Relay
As part of the European space strategy, the European Commission has set up a network of Copernicus ambassadors: the Copernicus relays. They are the voice, but also the eyes and ears of the European Commission at local and regional level, to ensure that users’ needs are integrated into Copernicus, and to maximize its operational use at local level.
Copernicus relays have been in place since the first quarter of 2017. They serve as local champions, coordinating and promoting activities around the Copernicus program, its benefits and opportunities for local businesses and residents. The network is part of a broader set of initiatives to provide information about the program and address citizens’ concerns about access to Copernicus data and information.
