- Abstract:
- At the level of small satellites with a mass of a few kilograms all capabilities of self-organizing sensor networks for Earth observation can be realized. Photogrammetry methods enable sensor data fusion to generate 3-dimensional images of a target area. Here appropriate satellite position information in combination with attitude determination and control provides precision pointing accuracies to generate suitable input for subsequent data processing. This way, on small satellites efficient methods for distributed sensor systems in orbit can be implemented.
