Achieving lights-out operation of SMAP using ground data system automation
Antonio Sanders · NASA Technical Reports Server (NASA) · 2013
The approach used in the SMAP ground data system to provide reliable, automated capabilities to conduct unattended operations has been presented. The impacts of automation on the ground data system architecture were discussed, including the three major automation patterns identified for SMAP and how these patterns address the operations use cases. The architecture and approaches used by SMAP will set the baseline for future JPL Earth Science missions.
