Solenix is the software partner in a consortium led by SPARC, which has been awarded a new contract by the European Space Agency to develop the ground processor for the next generation radiation monitor (NGRM) instrument in the scope of the Space Situational Awareness programme.
At Solenix, we have been working in the field of mission data analysis for the last 15 years. Through our work with European space institutions, we have supported the operations of many missions with tools that simplify and automate the analysis of spacecraft telemetry data, thanks to innovative ways of manipulating it and correlating it with other data sources.
We are happy to announce that a new web application we have developed for EUMETSAT and the Virtual Laboratory for Training and Education in Satellite Meteorology (VLab) of the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) is available to the public here! The objective of this application, which is the successor of EUMETSAT’s Training Calendar, is to widen the access to the training opportunities that both EUMETSAT and the VLab offer, making sure that they reach as many people as possible.
Solenix went (almost) into space! Our first High Altitude Ballooning mission “Hugin’s Eye” launched on 29 June 2019 into the stratosphere. Hugin’s Eye started as a company-funded pet project with the goal to send a weather balloon, including its payload, in the heights above 30 Km.
The European Space Agency commissions bespoke software that is developed by a wide range of industry partners from different countries, with the added value that any resulting system becomes licensable to any organisation in an ESA member state. One very important aspect is to ensure licensability, i.e. the produced software does not infringe any copyright or third-party rights. Besides other roles, the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC) is responsible for the Intellectual Property Management services within ESA.
We are very happy to announce that we have recently been awarded a new contract to support our customer EUMETSAT. In the scope of this contract, our Software Engineering Team will work with EUMETSAT’s Data Processing Systems and Applications Competence Area. The software applications to be maintained and evolved in this activity are bespoke and especially developed to meet EUMETSAT’s needs. They are used intensively in the processing of EO data products and, as a consequence, contribute directly to EUMETSAT’s core business. Initially the contract will support the following tools:
We are very happy to announce that we have been recently awarded a new contract to maintain and evolve some of the software applications available at the Space Weather Data Centre, which is part of the Space Situational Awareness Programme infrastructure. These applications offer a wide range of functionalities to various space weather communities with the aim of providing accurate and timely space environmental information.
Last month, Solenix attended the Kick-Off of the Open Geospatial Consortium's Testbed 15 initiative in Reston, Virginia, U.S.A.. For the third year running, Solenix participates in an OGC Testbed, the largest event of OGC's Innovation Program.
We are very pleased to announce that we have gained EUMETSAT’s trust to maintain and evolve two bespoke pieces of software, which were developed in-house to meet EUMETSAT’s needs for dissemination. The two packages are crucial to the daily operations of our customer, as they contribute to the handling of EUMETSAT’s core output: the meteorological product data. These two tools are:
