  1. Ground Based Observatories (GBO)MCDR Stewart Harris

  2. Approach to System I&T • Lab testing where necessary and possible • For instance, testing of temperature limits on cameras • Cold limit testing on commercial components • Get in the field early and often • Establish network of GBOs well before satellites launched • Prototype to be deployed winter ’03-’04 • ASI deployed with OSE in Calgary late Feb. • CSE deployed in Athabasca mid-Apr • GMAG (E/PO type) deployed in Athabasca mid-Apr • Original Deployment Schedule • 5 Units to be deployed by winter ’04-05 • Additional 15 Units deployed by winter ’05-06

  3. Observatory I&T Flow ASI Sensor Fab / Integration(UCB) Subsystem Inspection Subsystem Acceptance Test (incl performance verification) System Integration GMAG / GPS Fab / Integration(UCLA) Subsystem Inspection Subsystem Acceptance Test (incl performance verification) Functional Test OSE Fab / Integration(UCB) Subsystem Inspection Subsystem Acceptance Test (incl performance verification) Burn - In Shipment to Site On-Site Functional Test and Verification Remote Data Acquisition & Control Verification Installation Team departs site only after Operation is confirmed Physical Installation Unattended Operation Remote Comms Verification Custodian Orientation

  4. Current Deployment Schedule • Deployments scheduled between May and Oct in ’04, ’05, ‘06 • By Winter ’04-’05: 6 GBOs done • Summer ’04: deploy 4 in Canada, 2 in Alaska • By Winter ’05-’06: 14 GBOs done • Summer ’05: deploy 6 in Canada, 2 in Alaska • Demonstrate operational breadth of network • By Time of Themis Launch (Oct. ’06): 20 GBOs completed • Summer ’06: deploy final 6 in Canada • Complete the network, have all operating

  5. Deploy Schedule Summary Notes: “GMAG-n” is a full UCLA-built system with GMAG sensor, expected delivery in parentheses “GPS-n” is a UCLA-built system with GPS-only

  6. GBO Data Flow

  7. Data Responsibilities • Collaborator’s responsibilities: 1) UCalgary physically installs and maintains the Canadian GBO's 2) UCB physically installs and maintains the Alaskan GBO's   3) UCalgary recovers all GBO data (UCB ASI, UCLA GMAG, H&S) and GBO team (UCLA, UCB, UA) picks up data at UCalgary. 4) UAlberta recovers CGSM and NRCAN GMAG data. UCB picks up data from UAlberta. 5) UCalgary responds to all high level GBO H&S issues. UCB acts in backup capacity for this role. 6) UCalgary maintains the physical status of the Canadian GBO's 7) UCB maintains the physical status of the Alaskan GBO's 8) UCLA validates the GMAG data and directs UCalgary to make any configuration or calibration changes. Changes are discussed and approved by GBO team. 9) UCalgary validates ASI data. UCalgary will make changes to an instrument configuration/calibration after consulting with the GBO team (if the action is not already specified in the ops doc).   10) UCLA will recover the E/PO data. UCB picks up data from UCLA. 11) UCLA will validate data and respond to any H&S issues.

  8. CDR Peer Review Results GBO CDR Peer Review on 26-27 April, 2004 resulted in 6 RFAs. All have been closed by the review board.
