1 SWWT Space Situational Awareness Briefing for SWWT topic groups Mike Hapgood Chair, ESA Space Weather Working Team

2 SWWT BACKGROUND Space Situation Awareness is a concept that reflects our increasing dependence on space systems – telecom, navigation, surveillance, etc. Originates from US military – but civilian systems are equally vulnerable. Europe needs to develop both policy and capacity. ESA developing proposal for 2008 MC. This is seen to have three axes: –Survey, Tracking, –Imaging –Space weather (space environment monitoring)

3 SWWT Recent progress SWWT /SB convened meeting in Paris, 3 October. Attended by reps from many ESA Member States Key outputs: –SWWT Chair to join ESA SSA User Group (Paris, 21 November) –AG/MH to identify SpW target areas for SSA and develop scenarios for SpW services (central node? competence centres?) –Solicit input from SB members on national data policies and how these could impact a Space Weather element of a SSA proposal. –Explore interaction with LOFAR project (TEC data?)

4 SWWT Work in progress Mapping SpW measurement requirements to SSA relevance – see following slides Mapping SWENET services to SSA relevance Scenarios for SSA services: SWENET, CSDS Explore national data policies? LOFAR – phase calibration for radio astronomy: –source of TEC data? –user of ionospheric models?

5 SWWT Mapping of space weather measurement requirements to three proposed levels of SSA relevance. The requirements derived from ESA space weather feasibility studies led by Alcatel and RAL in 2000/1 –space-based measurements - from recent RAL consolidation of both 2000/1 studies –ground-based measurements - from RAL study –Both have traceability to the common user requirements developed by RAL and Alcatel SpW measurements for SSA

6 SWWT Ground-based measurements What Euro resources can contribute?

7 SWWT Space-based measurements What Euro resources can contribute?
