Leanspace for Constellations
Managing constellations or a fleet of diverse satellites is a complex challenge that demands reliability, flexibility, and efficiency. No matter what service you provide – broadband, IoT, remote sensing, PNT, or signal intelligence – we’ve got you covered.
The Leanspace platform and our products for constellations have been engineered to simplify the complexities of managing multiple satellites while reducing operational effort and risk. Our unique, scalable technology is suitable for constellations from a handful of satellites up to thousands.
Our modular and flexible architecture adapts to your fleet’s size and mission requirements, ensuring operational excellence across multiple missions and large constellations.
Common business drivers for Constellations
Handling hundreds of satellites is a completely different ballgame compared to operating just a few.
Legacy products will force you to keep adding more staff to operate the mission and manage the software, particularly when you deliver SLAs and with 24/7 operations. The costs of doing it this way are prohibitive, and it will only get you so far.
What you need are modern, clever ways to cost-efficiently operate and manage your fleet, with room to expand as your needs grow. This means lights-out automation, distributed operational teams, and very quick development cycles to update your software stack
It’ll help keep costs down, while placing you in a perfect position to grow.
Managing hundreds of satellites, ground stations, and other assets – all with different manufacturers, flight software, configurations, orbits, and communication protocols is a nightmare. Constellations are highly heterogeneous and dynamic, changing all the time.
The Leanspace platform is agnostic to any asset, is capable of handling a massive amount of data, processing millions of satellite operations events in real-time, and provides powerful configuration management capabilities to keep the coherence of your ever-changing constellation.
Leanspace is the only commercially available product that can truly serve such complexity while keeping costs under control.
Constructing a satellite constellation can get very complex, very fast. It will typically start with just a few satellites, with more being added in batches over time.
The key challenge is to accommodate for the varying levels of diversity in your fleet, especially if you want to leverage specific satellite manufacturers or iterate through designs if you’re building in-house.
With Leanspace you can mirror this iterative approach in your development of the ground segment; starting small with basic features, before adding more advanced products over time.
Not only will this keep costs in check, but you’ll be able to create a personalized setup that works alongside your fleet’s growth.
Running a high intensity, commercial service requires extreme levels of transparency on your operations so that you can give your customers confidence through SLAs.
Building an integrated ground segment on Leanspace makes this easy. By centralizing and standardizing all your data, the platform gives you total observability of your ongoing operations, with capabilities like automation monitoring, simulations, and data analytics.
This means that you can easily compute SLAs in real-time and gain confidence in committing to them for your customers.
