Internal |
This project belongs to the Space Situational Awareness (SSA) Programme of the European Space Agency (ESA). Our main objective is identify
how the SSA Space Weather (SWE) customer requirements need to be enhanced and tailored for the end-users in the Arctic region, and how these
requirements can be fulfilled. The SSA customer requirements are inspected and evaluated by applying a user survey 14 European end-users in the domains of
navigation, communication, resource exploitation, geomagnetic survey and tourism. The project started in November 2014 and its
duration is six months.
The study consists of three Tasks:
Task 1: Assessment of the Customer Requirements of the Arctic Region
Task 2: Tailoring of the SWE System and Product Requirements
Task 3: Development of the Arctic Region Service Roadmap
The Consortium conducting the survey consists of four research institutes:
Denmark Technical University (DTU, Lead)
Finnish Meteorological Institute (FMI, Sub-contractor)
Swedish Institute of Space Physics (IRF, Sub-contractor)
German Aerospace Center, Institute of Communications and Navigation (DLR, Consultant)
