Kongsberg Spacetec has signed a contract with the Danish
Meteorological Institute for delivery of two ground stations capable of
receiving and processing data from NOAA and METOP satellites (June
2005).
One system will be installed at DMI in Copenhagen, the other at Kangerlussuaq Greenland.
The delivery includes two antennas (L-band), hardware and software for ingest, monitoring & control, and processing.
This is the second MEOS contract Kongsberg
Spacetec has signed with DMI. President Bjørn Kanck (Kongsberg
Spacetec) states that “this is a very important contract because it
includes our latest METOP solution for the coming METOP satellite to be
launched in 2006 and it also shows that our MEOS solution is
appreciated by our customers and that we are the world leader in this
market”.
