Space Surveillance and Tracking (SST) as a Service for New Space
Due to the increasing amount of activities in space, the number of objects is becoming dangerously high and presenting a potential hazard to all satellites – especially in low Earth orbit. Since existing solutions are neither customer-friendly nor usable for the broader masses, new space market players are being forced to accept the risks of loss or damage. OKAPI:Orbits has developed a software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution that is dedicated to making satellite missions more sustainable and cost-efficient by offering customers space surveillance and tracking (SST) solutions as a service. It is a modular, customisable, and scalable software provided via a web interface and APIs. Due to the fact that this software is based on a data stream management system (DSMS), it offers several advantages. It can be used to operate all the relevant aspects of SST and supports integration into existing solutions.
Benefits:
Reduced risk of loss or damage to satellite constellations and lower mission costs overall
Very short access times through DSMS
Processes large amounts of data that define customer procedures that need to be followed
