Major Milestones:• Contract for Procurement of the Satellite in place with SSTL.

Satellite will be ready January 2008.

• Satellite Launch: year 2008

• Ground Segment deployment: September 2007 -> Possibility to acquire data from the other DMC satellites.

• DEIMOS is actually receiving DMC data over Spain and Portugal, as part of our procurement contract.

Agreements with DMC:• DEIMOS owns all the rights of the data generated by the DEIMOS

satellite, and can commercialise them all around the world.

• DEIMOS will have in exclusivity the distribution of DMC data (from other DMC satellites) over Spain and Portugal.

Discussions with ESA:We are currently discussing the possibility that our space mission becomes a third party mission

Ground Segment System OverviewGround Segment System Overview

Data Ordering:– Zone mapping or area acquisition– Nominal or Emergency Orders– NRT also supported thanks to the use of the Northern station

Data Archive:– Raw data archived off-line for the whole mission lifetime and on-

line available for the last six months.– Processed data available on-line for the mission life-time.

Mission Planning:– Based on MPAS (Mission Planning and Analysis System), developed

by DEIMOS for ESA, supporting Envisat and ALOS.– Incorporation of cloud coverage data in the short term planning

(e.g. few hours before acquisition)

Automatic Payload Data Segment:– The whole process from the reception of order to the generation of

level L1G products (including archiving) can be performedautomatic

InteroperabilityInteroperability

DEIMOS Space develops Ground Segment Systems forESA Earth Observations, particularly Mission Planning Systems

DEIMOS is discussing with ESA, the interoperability ofDEIMOS-1 and ESRIN, as part of the Third Party Mission:– DEIMOS intends allowing users to access DEIMOS-1 system

through ESA User Services (e.g. order handling, catalogue data exchange). DEIMOS knows all such interfaces.

– Discussions are on-going for interoperability also in terms of Mission Planning. Probably implemented in a second stage

DEIMOS is also keen to provide interoperability based onHMA ( Heterogeneous Mission Accessibility)

ConclusionsConclusions

DEIMOS is setting-up a full Earth Observation System, including Space Segment, Ground Segment, User Segment, Launch and Operations

DEIMOS is present in all the stages of the added value forEarth Observation. From raw data generation with our ownsource of data, up to the commercialisation of products, applications and services based on Earth Observation Data

DEIMOS is currently discussing with ESA the possibility forDEIMOS-1 becoming a Third Party Mission

DEIMOS has large expertise in the development of GroundSegment Systems for Earth Observation Missions for ESA, in particular Mission Planning. DEIMOS has the expertise and iskeen to support interoperability at several levels: OrderHandling, Catalogue, Mission Planning, HMA, etc
