Dynamic Targeting of Satellite Observations Using Supplemental Geostationary Satellite Data and Hierarchical Planning

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2603.06719v1 Announce Type: cross The Dynamic Targeting (DT) mission concept is an approach to satellite observation in which a lookahead sensor gathers information about the upcoming environment and uses this information to intelligently plan observations. Previous work has shown that DT has the potential to increase the science return across applications. However, DT mission concepts must address challenges, such as the limited spatial extent of onboard lookahead data and instrument mobility, data throughput, and onboard computation constraints.
