In today’s data-driven world, the ability to capture and store vast amounts of data at high throughput is critical for Earth Observation (EO) missions. This data can not only be saved for later download to the ground but also drives critical decision-making across a wide range of applications.
However, traditional ground-based storage methods face significant challenges, including limited bandwidth, delays in data retrieval, and the constant need for data transmission. To address these inefficiencies, a new approach to capturing, managing, and storing EO data has emerged.
Leveraging advancements in commercial terrestrial software, Ramon.Space has introduced an innovative solution: NuStream, an onboard, space-based, ultra-high-density storage recorder. Designed to support data-intensive space applications, NuStream ensures that massive datasets can be captured at high speed, stored reliably, and made readily available for detailed analysis and review.
NuStream – High-Performance Terabyte Storage
NuStream is a high-throughput storage system designed to handle data-intensive applications with demanding performance requirements. It enables the rapid capture of extensive data streams, which can then be processed using advanced DSP/AI engines for detailed analysis or compressed with specialized algorithms to meet mission-specific needs.
With 1TB of reliable, onboard, space-based storage, NuStream leverages advanced in-house chip technology to deliver faster data throughput while minimizing Size, Weight, Power, and Cost (SWaP-C). Its tailored chip architecture ensures it meets the economic and performance demands of modern EO missions efficiently and effectively, while minimizing operational costs.
- High Performance: Designed to handle massive data streams with ultra-fast throughput, ensuring seamless data capture and storage for even the most demanding EO applications.
- Optimized SwAP: Compact and lightweight design minimizes size, weight, and power consumption, reducing overall mission costs while maximizing efficiency.
- High-Capability Onboard 1 Terabyte Storage: Provides ample capacity to store mission-critical data, enabling long-term storage and retrieval without reliance on constant ground-based transmission.
- Reliable Data Integrity: Advanced error correction and data management technologies ensure long-term reliability and protection of stored data, even in harsh space environments.
By offering high performance and extended orbital lifetime, NuStream gives EO mission operators the confidence to operate in challenging space environments at a lower cost, ensuring that no critical data is ever lost.
A New Software-Defined Space Age
Ramon.Space is leveraging the power of high-performance on-board storage in space to set new standards for EO and data-intensive missions. By combining high-throughput data capture and reliable storage, NuStream represents a leap forward in space-based data solutions. It empowers operators to process and analyze data faster, more efficiently, and with greater confidence, resilience, and performance in orbit.
The NuStream is suitable for a wide range of Earth Observation applications, including:
- Optical, hyperspectral, RF Sensing (RFS) and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR): Supporting diverse EO payloads with high data demands.
- Edge computing: Enabling real-time data processing and decision-making directly in orbit.
- Mission data storage: Ensuring reliable, long-term storage for all mission data needs.
