4. IAP Objectives
A user-driven programme for delivering space-based services and applications to new user communities
To develop operational services for a wide range of users by combining different systems.
Responding to actual user needs, emphasising sustainable applications and services;
Active engagement with multiple sectors and communities;
Use of existing space assets: current/enhanced capacity;
(≥2 from: Satcoms, Satnav, Earth Observation, Human Space Flight)
Combining multiple existing space assets with terrestrial systems
Active studies and projects, with many more pending across a wide range of sectors
Space Assets provide excellent opportunities for enabling new services or innovative improvements in existing services
Satellite based systems
Satellite navigation (e.g. GNSS - GPS, Galileo, etc.) for understanding position and time of assets, people etc.
Satellite communications to establish exchange of information, voice connection, broadcast, etc.
Earth Observation to understand ground conditions and stability, environment parameters, monitor infrastructure motion, etc.
Human space flight (e.g. telemedicine)
Transport Health Safety Energy Development …
