Organisation profile

Organisation profile

In this division, we research and develop high-precision instruments for space missions, including navigation systems for climate research satellites, camera and navigation systems, and magnetometers for exploring planets and the solar system. We also use the instruments for research. In addition, we work to optimise the quality and reliability of space systems measurements. 

RESEARCH

Research and development activities in the division focus on high-precision instrumentation systems for space missions and research based on data gathered via these instruments. The division design camera-based navigation systems for space missions and instruments for measuring the Earth's and other planets' magnetic fields from uncrewed space crafts as well as other space missions systems.

UN Sustainable Development Goals

In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. Our work contributes towards the following SDG(s):

  • SDG 13 - Climate Action
  • SDG 14 - Life Below Water
