Abstract

While Ground Data systems are normally thought of primarily in terms of processors of Science and Calibration data, they are also used by Instrument Operations teams. This paper briefly outlines Aura's Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer (TES) experiment and TES Instrument Operations activities. It describes the data used to trend the health, status, and performance of the TES instrument, which are routed to the TES Instrument Operations Team (IOT) by the Ground Data system. TES is a typical in that it has some engineering data that are available only in the high rate data stream, rather than in low-rate engineering data. Blocks of commands to perform anticipated TES tasks were developed in parallel with TES flight software design. This paper concludes by showing how this early development of command blocks permitted significantly more flexibility in resolving a variety of TES Operations issues.
