CNES and its partners have developed a conceptual approach called tele-epidemiology which consists in studying the links between the environment, ecosystems and etiological agents responsible for diseases in human, animal and plant populations, based on space products truly adapted to the needs of health actors. This concept has been applied with success for the Rift Valley Fever (RVF) in the Ferlo region in Senegal. Hereafter results are presented.
