1 Steffen Kuntz / Noemie Bernede 15 January 2014
Synergies between Sentinels and the Contributing Missions Benefits and implementation approach for the German TerraSAR-X and TanDEM-X Missions Steffen Kuntz / Noemie Bernede 15 January 2014

2 Airbus Defence and Space: Market leading products
Synergies between Sentinels and the Contributing Missions Airbus Defence and Space: Market leading products Eurofighter A400M A330 MRTT (Multi-Role Tanker Transport) Ariane 5 Automated Transfer Vehicle (ATV) Satellites 15 January 2014

3 TerraSAR-X Public Private Partnership
Synergies between Sentinels and the Contributing Missions TerraSAR-X Public Private Partnership PPP-motivation Data and Products for scientific applications → Public interest Commercial Utilisation of Earth Observation Data → Private interest DLR Project Management Ground Segment Operations Scientific utilization → Ownership of satellite and data Airbus Defence and Space Satellite Development Launch → Financial contribution to Satellite development Infoterra Service infrastructure Information Products Commercial utilisation → Financial contribution to Operations Profits have to be re-invested into follow-on projects (TerraSAR-X2) to secure continuity 25 April 2017

5 C/X-Band Benefits (1/2) Complementing Sentinel-1 with TSX/PAZ
Synergies between Sentinels and the Contributing Missions C/X-Band Benefits (1/2) Ship classification Complementing Sentinel-1 with TSX/PAZ Combine data-sets to meet revisit & coverage requirements (taking benefit of similar information content in C and X-Band) Cross-cue sensors using Sentinel-1 large area coverage with TSX/PAZ high resolution to identify small objects, e.g. icebergs, ridges, gaps in maritime environment or perform infrastructure integrity monitoring on land Support to defence driven requirements: Maritime: ship detection, search & rescue Terrestrial: site monitoring (IMINT/GEOINT) Support to non-defence driven requirements Maritime: ice monitoring/ship routing Terrestrial: law enforcement/risk awareness: oil/gas/minerals exploitation, infrastructure integrity Airplane classification Ice detection Surface Movement 15 January 2014

6 C/X-Band Benefits (2/2) C/X Band Operational Benefit
Synergies between Sentinels and the Contributing Missions C/X-Band Benefits (2/2) C/X Band Operational Benefit Sentinel TSX/TDX/PAZ Complementarity Increased coverage and monitoring frequency Additional Information Combining different resolution and C/X Band content Ship Increased coverage and added capacity to survey large areas worldwide Ship detection with S-1 and ship classification with TSX in the same area Surface Movement Provision of a high monitoring frequency Large scale movement rates (S-1) Small scale detailed movements (TSX) Disaster Warning, Fracking, Pipeline monitoring GEOINT/ IMINT Increased scene density CCD for smaller objects, detection of smaller targets Agriculture Increased coverage Improves yield estimation Forest Quick coverage to cover in acquisition window Detection of crown disturbance 15 January 2014
