The NanoSat MO Framework is a software framework for nanosatellites based on CCSDS Mission Operations services.
It introduces the concept of apps in space that can be started and stopped from ground. Apps can retrieve data from the platform through a set of well-defined MO services. Many possibilities for extensions are available due to its modular and flexible design approach which is not limited to the space segment but extends down to ground by providing all the building blocks for a complete and free end-to-end solution. The research was carried by Graz University of Technology in partnership with the European Space Agency.
A Software Development Kit (SDK) is available in order to facilitate the development with the NanoSat MO Framework.
The latest NMF SDK release tag can be downloaded in Releases. However, the currently recommended distribution channel is directly from Git repository.
Prerequisites:
- Java SDK 1.8+
- Apache Maven
Clone this repository and run mvn install in the root directory.
Note that the errors about missing module descriptors during Javadoc generation are to be expected and non breaking.
In order to produce independently runnable Java executables (JAR artifacts with dependencies - equivalent of statically linked executables), use mvn install -P assembly-with-dependencies.
More documentation about code examples, SDK packaging and usage is available under sdk directory.
The source code of the NanoSat MO Framework can be found on GitHub.
Bug Reports can be submitted on: Bug Reports
Or directly in the respective source code repository.
