This activity aims to adapt the existing Flight Dynamics software infrastructure for orbit determination and propagation to supportSentinel operations, in preparation for the C D models of the Sentinel-1, -2 and -3 missions. Initially, the intention is to implement part of the user layer on top of the new orbit facility being developed in the Flight Dynamics Division, to fulfill the Sentinel mission requirements; and to write a new orbit propagator for test and validation purposes, in line with the new orbit determination facility and the existing test and validation infrastructure.This intended ITT will be published on EMITS under the following reference numbers AIRN number 19.112.02 and AO number: 1-9681. This ITT is funded by the Copernicus Programme and will be open exclusively to economic operators that have their registered office in an EU Member State or Iceland or Norway.
