Scheduling Satellite Passes

At Leaf Space, we recognize that scheduling satellite passes across a global network of ground stations is a complex challenge. With numerous antennas and hundreds of satellites, manual booking often leads to inefficiencies. That’s why we developed a powerful, proprietary scheduling system designed to ensure optimal availability and performance.

How It Works:

Our Scheduler is built on a robust Kubernetes engine that intelligently allocates capacity across our entire ground station network. It takes into account various mission constraints provided by users, integrates them with available satellite passes, and performs detailed optimizations to deliver a dynamic moving window schedule.

Key Benefits:

• Automated scheduling: Eliminate manual bookings—our system automates the process to ensure optimal performance while still allowing for manual bookings for specific ConOps
• Efficiency and reliability: Receive an optimized schedule that guarantees availability while maintaining the highest level of reliability across our network
• Dynamic-Window: Plan ahead with a schedule that updates dynamically, providing maximum flexibility for your operations

Why Our Scheduler is Different?
Traditional scheduling methods rely on a first-come, first-served basis, which can lead to bottlenecks and missed opportunities. Our Scheduler revolutionizes the process by utilizing patent-pending algorithms to guarantee capacity for each satellite. This empowers you to execute your mission confidently, knowing that Leaf Space has already ensured the necessary passes are available

Ready to Experience Smart Scheduling?
Our Scheduler is designed to meet the needs of both small operators and large constellations. Contact us today to learn how Leaf Space can optimize your satellite operations and provide guaranteed, reliable access to mission-critical data

And don’t get us wrong—if you still prefer to manually book your satellite contacts over the network, you’re welcome to do so!
