Over the first two years of operation of the ROSCOSMOS State Corporation’s Antarctic ERS Regional Center, RIPI’s specialists have provided about four hundred communications sessions for receiving and relaying ERS data.

The ROSCOSMOS State Corporation’s Antarctic ERS Regional Center is located on the territory of the Progress Russian station and is part of the Integrated Geographically distributed ERS Information system (IGDERSIS), built by the specialists and engineers of our Institute.

The specialists and engineers of RIPI together with the employees of Research Center for Earth Operative Monitoring (NTs OMZ) remotely carry out planning of communications sessions, reception of ERS data in Antarctica and relaying these data to the IGDERSIS’s processing complexes, located in Moscow.

Once a year, as members of the crew of seasonal Russian Antarctic Expedition, the RIPI specialists carry out activities covering author and technical supervision as well as annual technical maintenance of the Ground-based ERS data Receiving and Processing Complex, operated in the Antarctic ERS Regional Center of the ROSCOSMOS State Corporation.
