Spacecraft Operation - Mission risk analysis



The expected variation of the omni-directional 10 eV
to 40 keV electron population at MEO orbit (L=4-6)
due to the geomagnetic variability in terms of Kp.


The service “Spacecraft Operation - Mission risk analysis” aims to provide the necessary information to perform a mission risk analysis and an assessment of the mission susceptibility for a given spacecraft due to the expected space environment conditions. This information is based on statistical models and historical data of the space environment (i.e. ionising radiation, plasma, microparticles, atmosphere, and UV) and its effects (e.g. dose, single event upset, sensor background, cumulated charge, spacecraft anomalies, microparticle impacts) . The service is intended for personnel such as spacecraft operators in the planning phase of operations.

This service is implemented through a combination of products and tools that can be found through the following tabs along with expert support provided by the teams constituting the ESA Space Weather Service Network. Should you require further guidance in the use of this service, or have specific questions about any aspects of the service presented here, don’t hesitate to contact the Helpdesk.


A number of models and in-orbit sensor datasets are made available with the help of tools and products such as:

  • the Space Environment Information System (SPENVIS) coupling several empirical and engineering models of the space environment and its effects on spacecraft or components based on a mission plan;
  • the Space Environment Data System (SEDAT) allows engineering analyses to be carried out on datasets related to the spacecraft charged particle environments;
  • the Solar Energetic Particle Environment Modelling application (SEPEM) allowing solar energetic particle statistical analyses on an extended set of cross-calibrated data;
  • the European Debris Impact Database (EDID) provides data processing and dissemination functions for measurements from European debris and meteoroid impact detectors;
  • the Space Research Laboratory Solar Energetic Particles (UTU-SEP) products provide access to a high energy SEP event list as well as the calculation of the expected high energy proton fluence and worst-case proton flux for a specific mission length due to SEPs;
  • measurements and derived data products from the Energetic Particle Telescope (EPT) on PROBA-V;
  • measurements and derived data products from the Standard Radiation Environment Monitors (SREM) on Proba-1, Integral, Rosetta, Herschel and Planck;
  • the electron population model from Mullard Space Science Laboratory (MSSL) for LEO, MEO and GEO as function of solar wind speed and Kp index;
  • the SWIFF Plasmasphere Model (SPM) dynamical simulation provides the number density and temperatures of the electrons as a function of time;
  • the Satellite Risk Indicators Forecast (SaRIF) provides colour-coded risk indicators showing the risk from internal charging and total ionising dose for the outer radiation belt and slot region, as well as a recontruction of these environments;
  • the Space Weather Data Browsing and Analysis (SWE Data) provides access to space weather environment data.

The dynamic space environment caused by a multitude of space weather phenomena (e.g. solar flares, coronal mass ejections, solar energetic particle events) may cause anomalous effects and have severe consequences for spacecraft. During the planning phase of a mission or specific operations, a detailed mission risk analysis and an assessment of the susceptibility due to space weather effects need to be performed. The expected space environment conditions can be obtained from statistical models and historical data.

From the Products tab, a range of products can be accessed that provide information on space weather events and the space environment conditions during a specific time in the past.

Measurements and detection of solar flares and coronal mass ejections are available from the Solar Influences Data Analysis Center (SIDC) and the Kanzelhöhe Observatory (KSO). The international sunspot number is provided by the SIDC as well. Solar wind conditions and statistical long-term plasma conditions at L1 can be obtained through the Product Browser and Statistical Products pages from the Heliospheric Weather Expert Service Centre (HPARC/PB and HPARC/STAT).

A catalogue of very high-energy solar particle events, and models of the very high-energy solar energetic proton fluence and peak flux are provided by the University of Turku (UTU). The Solar Energetic Particle Environment Modelling (SEPEM) application server provides a reference event list for solar energetic protons, a reference data set for protons and helium, and tools to perform solar energetic particle statistical analyses on an extended set of cross-calibrated data. An archive of energetic particle flux measurements (electrons, protons and helium) from the Energetic Particle Telescope (EPT) on board PROBA-V at LEO can be accessed, as well as daily radiation situation reports comparing the measurements from several Standard Radiation Environment Monitors (SREM) in various key regions with reference particle rates are provided. Electron population models at GEO and LEO are provided by Mullard Space Science Laboratory (MSSL). Besides forecasts for spacecraft effects and the radiation environment for the outer radiation belt and slot region, the SaRIF product also provides a post event reconstruction for the energetic electron spectra in those regions based on the BAS-RBM model.

An archive of Total Electron Content (TEC) is provided through the Swarm Utilisation Analysis (SUA) interface provided by the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ), while TEC and foF2 maps for the European region are provided through the European Ionosonde Service (EIS) operated by the National Observatory of Athens (NOA). An archive of the geomagnetic indices Kp and Ap is provided by GFZ as well.

A large set of measurements can also be accessed through the Space Weather Data Browsing and Analysis (SWE Data) and AMDA web interfaces. The European Debris Impact Database (EDID) contains a large database of events measured from debris and meteoroid impact detectors together with spacecraft housekeeping data.

In order to study the specific impact on a spacecraft in more depth, a tool such as the Space Environment Information System (SPENVIS) could be considered. This tool allows the execution of a set of space environment models based on a mission scenario (mission duration, typical spacecraft trajectories and spacecraft attitude) and to evaluate impacts and risks by propagating the results into engineering models. The tool includes graphical visualisation and an extended help with background information and references to the European standards.

A detailed overview of the typical programmatic concerns related to the space environment is provided in the User Manual of the service page for "Spacecraft Design - Environment specification: data archive".

                                                              SEPEM (Solar Energetic Particle Environment Modelling) is a WWW interface to solar energetic particle data and a range of modelling tools and functionalities intended to support space mission design. The system provides an implementation of several well known modelling methodologies, built on cleaned datasets. It also gives the user increased flexibility in his/her analysis and allows generation of mission integrated fluence statistics, peak flux statistics and other functionalities. It also integrates effects tools that calculate single event upset rates and radiation doses for a variety of scenarios.

                                                              SPENVIS (Space Environment Information System) is a web-based interface for assessing the space environment and its effects on spacecraft systems and crews. The system is used for mission analysis and planning. SPENVIS includes several empirical models of the space environment covering mainly cosmic rays, solar energetic particles, the natural radiation belts, magnetic fields, space plasmas and the upper atmosphere. A range of engineering models are also available to help assess the effects of the space environment on spacecraft such as surface and internal charging, energy deposition, solar cell damage and SEU rates. Usually these later models take their inputs from the empirical models present in SPENVIS. The system also includes extensive background information on the space environment, the environment models and the related standards.

                                                              The Space Research Laboratory Solar Energetic Particles (UTU-SEP) products consist of several tools to calculate expected very high-energy solar energetic particle environment specifications for mission durations between 0.5 and 7 years: cumulative and worst-case event fluences for very high-energy (10-1000 MeV) protons, peak flux for very high-energy (330-700 MeV) protons, cumulative and worst-case fluences for high-energy (13-100 MeV/n) heavy ions. A catalogue of SEP events based on SOHO/ERNE observations of 55-80 MeV protons is also provided containing information on event start and end times (protons and electrons), peak intensity (high-energy protons and electrons), proton and heavy ion fluence, and information on associated solar flares and CMEs.

                                                              SEDAT (Space Environment Data System) is a tool for the engineering analysis of spacecraft charged particle environments. The facility provides access to the ODI database containing a large and comprehensive set of data about that environment as measured in-situ by a number of space missions. The user can select a set of space environment data appropriate to the engineering problem under study. SEDAT also offers a set of software tools, which can operate on the data retrieved from the database. These tools allow the user to carry out a wide range of engineering analyses. SEDAT is using a GUI written in Java.

                                                              EDID (European Debris Impact Database) provides automated data processing and dissemination functions for measurements retrieved from European debris and meteoroids impact detectors.  It covers impacts from the DEBIE-1, DEBIE-2 and GORID detectors.  Users can access more than 3,000,000 debris and micro-meteoroid event records plus sensor and spacecraft housekeeping data via a user-friendly web interface.  Filters can be defined for each available parameter and be used for regular data retrieval.

                                                              The AMDA system provides an archive of planetary, solar wind, Earth magnetosphere and ionosphere mission and ground based products. In addition it supports a range of standard models such as magnetic footprints, magnetic fields, solar wind propagation to planets and probes as well as access to external databases of observations and simulations. A key functionality of the system is its embedded plotting, data mining and cataloguing functionalities which are extremely useful in relation to posteriori analysis.

                                                              SWE Data is a web application that provides access to a wide range of Space Weather related data sources covering the areas of the spacecraft, ionospheric, and ground effects. SWE Data allows the user to access all data contained in the repository providing analysis and visualisation tools from these disparate sources.
