 About This Website

 

Welcome to the CCSDS New Work Items (NWI) Announcements Website. This is a running list of new initiatives within CCSDS (and by extension, ISO TC20/SC13). This includes the formation of new groups (BOFs and Working Groups), and new projects (documents). CCSDS announces these activities with the hope that additional participants will recognize the important work being done, and join in the effort to accomplish it. CCSDS works on advanced technology and simultaneously forges international agreements to use that technology. These are critical initiatives for future space programs of many agencies. If you have the technical expertise and the interest to represent your agency, company or organization in these areas, please consider contacting the CCSDS Working Group Chair (listed below each item) and joining the team.

Call for interest in Mission Planning Service Standardisation

CCSDS is considering potential work in the area of Mission Planning.  We have issued a “Call for Interest” in this area, and a meeting was held at the CCSDS Technical Plenary in Darmstadt, Germany in April 2012.  A second meeting is planned in Cleveland, Ohio, USA, at the Fall Technical Plenary meetings of CCSDS.  The Call for Interest is currently organized under the Mission Operations and Information Management Area, and the Spacecraft Monitor and Control Working Group.  

·         A short Call for Interest summary writeup, including some results from the Darmstadt meeting, is available here:   Click Here for PDF​

·         A more expanded description of the concept is available here, in the Call For Interest for Darmstadt:  Click Here for PDF​

·         An open CCSDS email distributin list has been established, and you can join by clicking here.​

 

Anyone with expertise to contribute in the Mission Planning area, and a stake in future international missions that will exchange Mission Planning services should consider joining the team and contributing to this exciting and foundational work.
