[Smwg] Planning Data Formats Book - Need for a "Simple Service Request"

Fri Feb 6 02:52:46 UTC 2015

Colin,

I believe we can certainly make room for the follow-up discussion from the London meetings which we really have not gotten into very much (for obvious reasons due to more immediate concerns).  I think we definitely need to have that discussion. At the moment my main concern is that we haven't had time to consider the ramifications on the overall concept as it appears that this is also starting to touch upon the eventual automation recommendation by discussion of operation such as new replace, etc.

To perhaps help regain some of the context (for those who were not able to attend the London meetings) my recollection from the London meetings is that ESA prefers an ability to request very refined sets of potential service opportunities (i.e. return of planning data) as opposed to the general NASA practice (as best as I understand it) of returning a fairly broad set of information and letting the user then select and sort through the information of use to them. The discussion was then that there are potentially some conceptual parallels between expressing such constraints for planning data return and those constraints for expressing specific service (execution) commitments.  My sense is that both of these play into what ESA calls "standing orders".  Perhaps we can start here as a conceptual basis for the discussion on the WebEx/teleconference next week?

Best regards,

-Erik

Colin,

The comment from ESOC is a very good one that we need to keep in mind as it is applicable to other networks as well (such as NEN and NOAA).
We've yet to discuss the action from London regarding the "synergies"
between the planning data request and the service package request.  We can address this topic along with that at the next telecon.

Best Regards,
JP
