Tender Details
Copernicus is the European Programme for the establishment of a European capacity for Earth Observation. This initiative is headed by the European Commission (EC) in partnership with the European Space Agency (ESA).
The European Space Operations Centre (ESOC) is responsible for the LEOP and Commissioning of the first Sentinels satellites and routine operations of Sentinel-1 (A and B model), Sentinel-2 (A and B) and Sentinel-5P. They also support the Sentinel-3 mission, being operated by EUMETSAT. ESOC is also supporting the development of the C and D models and potentially can be involved in the operations of future mission related with Copernicus.
Telemetry from the satellites is acquired and downlinked at least once per orbit and automatically forwarded to ESOC where it is processed and stored. Analysis of the satellites telemetry is performed via the Sentinels HKTM and Warehousing Tool, currently implemented via an ESA developed software known as the Mission Utility and Support Tools (MUST).
