Concluding Remarks on SDA’s Presentations and related Reports A. Hilgers 14-11-2005
General remarks • 29 SDA presentations • 10 on ionospheric effects • 9 on ground effects • 4 on service for SC industry • 1 on service for aircraft industry • 5 on Scientific monitoring 14-11-2005
On Ionospheric effects • Well established services with demonstrated user interest and needs. • Sustainability: customer (+/-), (Science?) Agencies (+/-). • Potential case for space elements (start demonstration with Champ, may continue with SWARM & METOP). • Splinter: Wednesday, 15:30-16:30 14-11-2005
On SC and aircraft SDA presentations • Demonstrated user interest and needs. • Relatively innovative type of services. • Sustainability: customer (+/-), Agencies (++). • Potentially strong case for space elements (LEO, GTO, MEO, GEO, Hitchhiker). • SDA’s had strong gaps. • Serious extrapolation work from SEA required. • Splinter: Thursday, 15:30-16:30 14-11-2005
On Ground Effects SDA presentations • Many well established services with demonstrated user interest and needs. • A few more exploratory forecast based services. • Sustainability: customer (+/-), (Science, geological survey?) Agencies (+/-). • Potential case for space elements (L1 solar wind monitoring). • Splinter: Tuesday, 15:30-16:30 14-11-2005
On scientific monitoring SDA presentations • Many well established services with assumed long lasting scientific interest. • A few more exploratory new monitoring type of activities. • Sustainability: customer (-), (Science) Agencies (+/-). • Potential case for space elements (L1 solar wind monitoring). • Need to consolidate the case of benefit of such measurements (SEA support?) • Splinter: Tuesday, 18:00 14-11-2005
General • Market covered by SDA is mainly on small scale services with ~10kE/Y cost. • Coordinated approach often appreciated. • Mixed of scientific/application interest. • Agencies/government support seems still needed. • Case must be consolidated. 14-11-2005
Next Each topical group needs to: • consolidate the various topical reports. • Investigate balance between customer/agency required effort (note that ESA main role is in building space elements). • Investigate benefit of coordinated approach. • Interact with Tim Woodward for the cost/benefit analysis. • Resume plenary discussion on Friday. 14-11-2005
