Asseco Poland will perform the migration of spaceship simulators used by ESA into a new platform based on RAP (Remote Application Platform) technology. This solution will make it possible to access the simulators using a web browser. The project will also examine the capabilities and performance of the platform and it will identify potential problems associated with remote access to the system. In addition, the company will analyze the possibilities for 3D visualization of simulation models and some of such solutions will be implemented in the system. The project is expected to be completed in December 2015. Access to the spaceship simulators will enable checking the operation of satellites before they are sent into the orbit, making it possible to avoid potential errors which might result in the loss of such equipment. Moreover, having the ability to use the simulators via a web browser, in the future the Agency will be able to offer access to its simulations as a service provided “in the cloud”.“Our cooperation with ESA opens a great opportunity for the development of innovative solutions for the space sector,” said Paweł Seliga, Projects Manager at the Public Administration Department of Asseco Poland. “By engaging in the implementation of successive projects, we build up pioneer competence and gain valuable experience that we want to use in this rapidly growing market,” he added.
Poland became a member of the European Space Agency in 2012. This has paved the way for Polish companies to cooperate within European space and research programs. The ESA data shows that the market for civil applications of solutions used in the space industry is worth EUR 240 billion.***The view expressed herein can in no way be taken to reflect the official opinion of the European Space Agency
