Get More Science Out of Your Missions with the CCSDS Mission Operations Services
Mario Merri, Mehran Sarkarati, CcSDS SM&C Working Group · SpaceOps 2014 Conference · 2014
Mission Operations (MO) Services are emerging CCSDS standards that are meant to reduce the chronic gap in innovation that has accumulated between terrestrial and on-board software technology. CCSDS is defining MO Services that are distributable, i.e. designed to be used on-ground, on-board and across the space link and that extend from on-board, through the ground systems, to the end users. They are independent of transport and encoding technology and standard across all CCSDS Agencies. Among the several benefits, MO services will also increase the science return by means of innovative service orchestration.
