Service Supporting Resource Exploitation System Operators (RESOSS)

As part of the ESA SSA program preparatory phase project SN-VI Provision of Space Weather Additional Services led by Rhea Group, Tromsø Geophysical Observatory (TGO) and the Norwegian Mapping Authority are developing a Service Supporting Resource Exploitation System Operators (RESOSS).

The RESOSS service shall provide near real-time information about geomagnetic disturbances which primarily affect directional drilling and aeromagnetic surveys, and ionospheric disturbances which primarily affect GNSS-based services.

The service is expected to be ready for testing by users around the European Space Weather week in November. Eventually the service will be available through the ESA SSA space weather portal.
