Mission Manager for Supervisory and Autonomous Satellite Operations PI: Mark Abramson/Draper Lab Proposal No.: AIST-0157-0091 • Develop a set of algorithms for the autonomous utilization of a suite of heterogeneous satellites to achieve maximal earth observing scientific value • Incorporate these algorithms into an Earth Phenomena Observing System (EPOS) simulation testbed EPOS • Employ a hierarchically and functionally decomposed planning and control architecture that includes situation assessment, plan generation, plan implementation and coordination at appropriate levels of automation • Two year baseline project with option year. EPOS year – 1: multiple ephemeral targets observed by 100 maneuverers 2: add: long-term targets, multiple 100’s of coasting satellites, simultaneous planning and execution 3: control center planning, UAVs • Fully and efficiently utilize a complementary and cooperative suite of heterogeneous Earth-observing systems that responds to significant events and provides enhanced understanding of ephemeral Earth phenomena that impact human life and property • David Carter • Stephan Kolitz • Michael Ricard • Chris Sanders
