Terma is headquartered at Aarhus, Denmark. Internationally, Terma has subsidiaries and operations in The Netherlands, Germany, United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, India, Singapore and the U.S. The Space Business Area contributes with missioncustomized software and hardware products including power systems and star trackers as well as services to support a number of inorbit pioneering European scientific and Earth observation satellite missions. Additionally, Terma is contracted for the development and delivery of software and hardware systems and services for numerous ongoing and future European, and international missions. Terma Space operates out of Denmark, The Netherlands, Germany, and the UK. Job description For our customer, EUMETSAT in Darmstadt, Germany, we are seeking an Lightning Imager data processing consultant to support the Meteosat Third Generation MTG programme. The MTG system will include three satellites, two MTGI imaging satellites and one MTGS sounder satellite. Each MTGI will have an imaging radiometer, the Flexible Combined Imager FCI, and a lightning detection instrument, the Lightning Imager LI. The MTG LI instrument is based on detecting short transient events against a dark night time or bright day time background. The detected events are registered by the LI instrument when something resembling a lightning signal has been detected. The triggered event can be a real lightning event or a false event. A false event is defined as a LI triggered event occurring in the absence of a lightning optical pulse, which may have a range of causes including spacecraft motion microvibrations, space environment particle transients protons, heavy ions, etc., electronics noise, thermo mechanical noise, and solar glint. The onground data processing for the LI instrument is split in 2 steps the Level 01b data processing from raw instrument data into geophysically calibrated data and the Level 12 data processing into data products for the LI data users groups, flashes, etc.. The Level 01b data processing includes various correction steps algorithms related to corrections for detector effects, electronic effects, radiometric effects, quality flagging aspects, as well as algorithms related to triggered event filtering flagging and Image Navigation and Registration INR geolocation. Responsibilities In general, the tasks will be towards the provision of support to the LI onground data processing development, with a strong emphasis on all the 01b data processing aspects. You will be integrated into the Instrument Functional Chain Engineering IFCE group of the MTG System Engineering team, and report to the LI instrument system engineer. You will also work closely together with people from the Remote Sensing and Products Division RSP within EUMETSAT that work on the LI. Your activities will include support to the MTG programme for the LI instrument in the following areas Support the development and evaluation of detector, electronic, radiometric, quality flagging, performance and calibration degradation correction and monitoring algorithms detector, electronics and optical and all other algorithms relevant for the LI 01b data processing. For INR geolocation algorithmssupport from LI side towards algorithms provided by other sources is anticipated Support the development and evaluation of appropriate LI triggered event filtering flagging algorithms for 01b and 12 data processing, with emphasis on the 01b data processing Support the development of prototype software code for the purposes of testing and verification of the developed LI 01b algorithms Support the development of a reference processor for LI, from level0 to level1b, within EUMETSAT Provision of an Algorithm Theoretical Baseline Document ATBD for the LI 01b processing Support to the generation of associated documentation including technical reports, etc. Participation in the LI Instrument Functional Chain Engineering IFCE group Conducting and supporting external studies relevant for and related to the above activities, and analysing and evaluating the study results.
