GMV has won a new contract for the Spanish Centro para el Desarrollo Tecnológico Industrial (CDTI) to develop a coordinated scheduling software for planning and tasking the activities of the overall network of multinational sensors in the European Union’s Space Surveillance and Tracking system, EU SST. GMV announced the contract Jan. 24.

This new project is part of the sensor planning and tasking activities within EU SST, under the responsibility of CDTI in Spain. Its main objective is to develop a single scheduling software to define a coordinated plan for the large network of SST sensors in the EU SST system. This includes radars, telescopes and satellite laser ranging (SLR) stations all over the world from all members of the EU SST consortium

GMV leads EU SST contracts in five countries (Spain, France, Germany, Poland, and Romania) and has additional capabilities and contracts in the U.K. and Portugal in the SST domain in Europe.
