Nowadays various Earth observation satellite systems are widely used in solving different scientific and applied problems. One of the biggest areas of their use is the development of various dedicated remote monitoring information systems aimed at continual acquisition of information about different processes, objects and phenomena. A significant number of studies on the development, implementation and support of such systems have been conducted in Space Research Institute RAS (IKI RAS) over the last twenty years. These years resulted both in dozens of successfully developed and implemented systems and creation of original technologies for such system development and implementation.
The paper describes and analyzes general features and trends of current remote monitoring systems evolution based on IKI RAS experience. Basic blocks and subsystems design features and specifics are described, the possibilities of modern technologies application for their development are stated. Also the paper discusses current features of technologies developed by IKI RAS and aimed at elaboration of various blocks of remote monitoring systems. The described technologies are used in many remote monitoring systems operated today in Russia.
The paper discusses development prospects of the described technologies and approaches in view of both fast evolution of satellite Earth observation systems and emergence of new information systems development methods and technologies enabling their interoperation with very large, distributed continuous data archives.
Keywords: automated information systems, satellite Earth observation systems, monitoring systems, automated data processing technologies, remote sensing data, distributed information systems, very large data archives
