[Kearney, Mike W. (MSFC-EO01)]

CESG Chair:  I concur, and we will issue the formal invitation to SC14
shortly.  

 

CMC members:  If anyone has any comments or issues with this approach,
please "reply all" to initiate discussion.  No response is needed if you
concur.

Subject: Request for ISO TC20/SC14 formal review of the Orbit Data
Messages specification

 

CMC Chair: with regards to the CCSDS Navigation WG collaboration with
ISO TC20/SC14/WG3 on the Orbit Data Messages update (502.0-P.1.1), the
current status is:

1.  CESG Review of the document has completed.
2.  The CMC Poll authorizing Agency Review was passed.
3.  Tom Gannett/Erin Kahn have started working to establish the joint
document review (CCSDS & ISO)

In order for the CCSDS Navigation WG to make satisfactory progress on
completing the document, it is necessary to get the joint review
described in #3 above started as soon as possible, in order for the WG
to be able to work on RIDs at the Berlin meeting.

Accordingly, I would like to ask that the CMC should extend a formal
invitation to ISO TC20/SC14 to review the CCSDS Orbit Data Messages
document 502.0-P.1.1.  This initiative is a natural evolution of the
CCSDS-ISO TC20/SC13 reference correspondences N404/N529 and N405/N530,
as of August 2007.  The invitation should note that for the purpose of
this particular document, and any subsequent draft versions, the ISO
TC20/SC14 is considered a special ad-hoc member of the CCSDS, with the
document review privileges normally granted to CCSDS Member Agencies.
These privileges include the submission of RIDs by the participating
reviewers, which will be collected and processed by the overall
technical coordinator of the review i.e.,  the Chairman of the CCSDS
Navigation Working Group, Mr. David S. Berry). 

The invitation letter should specifically note that: 

1) This review is one of the required steps in the process of producing
Orbit Data Messages (CCSDS 502.0-B-2) as a CCSDS Recommended Standard; 
2) Since the CCSDS has a requirement for the creation of interoperable
prototypes as part of the standardization process, the CCSDS assumes
that at least one of the prototypes using the new message type will be
created by ISO TC20/SC14.

The CMC action  to extend the invitation to SC14 is requested by July
11, 2008.

Best regards



Adrian J. Hooke
Chairman, CCSDS Engineering Steering Group (CESG)
