Description : Telemedicine in the French Southern and Antarctic Terriitories (FSAT) has historically relied on geostationary satellites (Telespazio, Inmarsat fleet); however, these do not cover polar regions (as the satellites appear too low on the horizon) and they entail a time delay in response.
The OneWeb constellation, operating in low Earth orbit (LEO), provides polar coverage, high bandwidth, and low latency.
Operations are carried out in conjunction with the Caen University Hospital and the Mont-Blanc hospitals, which coordinate with the University Hospital of La Réunion. Values information :
