Abstract:
This paper highlights the challenges of satellite monitoring systems integration, in particular based on
Grid platform, and reviews possible solutions for these problems. We describe integration issues on different
levels: data integration level and task management level (job submission in terms of Grid). We show example of
described technologies for integration of monitoring systems of Ukraine (National Space Agency of Ukraine,
NASU) and Russia (Space Research Institute RAS, IKI RAN). Another example refers to the development of
InterGrid infrastructure that integrates several regional and national Grid systems: Ukrainian Academician Grid
(with Satellite data processing Grid segment) and RSGS Grid (Chinese Academy of Sciences).
