Enterprise Ground Services – Simplifying and Improving Ground Systems Architecture
1:30 p.m. -Tuesday May 24

This session explores: The exponential growth of smallsats, as well as the push within the Air Force to be more resourceful, are two key factors driving current interest in ground architecture. As space opens up to more and more commercial players launching their own satellite networks, there is a mounting need for low-cost automated solutions. Many operators need to expand their ground capabilities to sustain their growing constellations, but as they are also cost sensitive, truly innovative solutions are required. The same is true of the US Air Force, where cost savings are a key driver of the current enterprise ground service (EGS) focus.
