description: Airbus OneAtlas combines fixed-fee subscriptions (Living Library) with consumption-based pay-per-order pricing on archive and tasking imagery, and enterprise / defense contracts. The metered units are area (square kilometres) for archive / Living Library and acquisitions for tasking. Public pricing is gated, so the FinOps mapping is structural.
notes: Unit prices are gated behind sales; FinOps mapping documents the billing surface but cannot be reconciled to a public rate card.
