The project aimed at addressing some of the issues and limitations of current systems by enhancing the integration, searching and visualisation from different instruments on a single spacecraft and the more complex task of using multi-spacecraft observations.
Skytek built a collaborative working environment (CWE) for ESTECs Concurrent Design Facility (CDF). This facility supports the design and development of large complex ESA hardware systems by providing a facility where scientists and engineers can share trouble short and information on system design.
Skytek’s Collaborative Working Environment (CWE) is a web portal designed to provide the CDF with the latest collaborative and communication software and infrastructure. This supports the exchange of information between personnel both at the CDF and remote users.
