Ground Terminal Control Software

Even the most advanced flight vehicles require a comprehensive ground approach. SDL develops flight-proven, user-friendly ground terminal control software that provides secure, coordinated communication between spacecraft and ground systems, minimizing the manpower and expense of supporting a large number of missions simultaneously. Through a simple client interface, operators can easily uplink commands and obtain telemetry data without the need to understand the underlying complexity of the ground network. The flexible and extensible software design supports the addition of new hardware and ground systems to active ground networks, supports additional ground networks, and can leverage multiple ground networks simultaneously.
