NAPEOS software
NAPEOS, the NAvigation Package for Earth Observation Satellites, is a state of the art software system for GNSS data processing providing results with a very accuracy.
NAPEOS is developed and maintained by the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC) of the European Space Agency (ESA). The NAPEOS developments started around 1995. In 2003 the GNSS capabilties started to be added a project that was finished in 2007. After significant testing the navigation support office at ESOC (OPS-GN) started to use the NAPEOS software in January 2008 for all its IGS activities.
A significant number of companies and individuals have been involved in the development of the NAPEOS software. Of course the major part of the GNSS work has been done at the navigation support office (OPS-GN) at ESOC with a special mentioning for the company GMV. GMV has been responsible for major parts of the actual programming of the NAPEOS source code.
At OPS-GN, in ESOC, NAPEOS supports all the activities in the International GNSS Service (IGS), the International DORIS Service (IDS), the International Laser Ranging Service (ILRS), and other international scientific communities. NAPEOS is also used for the routine precise orbit determination (POD) of several LEO missions, e.g., the ESA ENVISAT mission.
NAPEOS allows fully automated, robust, and reliable GNSS processing at very high accuracy levels with processing efficiency.
Commercial services using NAPEOS are proposed by the company PosiTim.
