Description of
2、 Driving Event: The Geosynchronous Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer (GIFTS) Project was supposed to use on-board processing to autonomously determine where to point the instrument. This capability proved costly and was later de-scoped to one of recovering the pointing knowledge using ground pr
3、ocessing. But with the loss of on-board attitude pointing knowledge, GIFTS could not meet the latency requirement for generating the Navys imaging product. Thus, the team went through another round of requirements iteration to resolve issues, inter-agency goals and objectives, and to properly alloca
4、te new and/or modified requirements to the subsystems. The de-scope and the requirements iterations had impacts on the instrument design, often causing the team to change course and throw away work. Lesson(s) Learned: Understand the data requirements of interested parties. Understand the recovery pr
5、ocesses required to produce the products. Agree up front which portions of the data recovery and product generation are allocated to the Space Segment and to the Ground Segment. Recommendation(s): At the instrument level, verification was planned to be done by analyses. The test chamber being Provid

Reliance was being placed on bench tests at the sub-assembly level for pointing system components. These results and the pointing characterist
7、ics from sub-system tests were going to be used in a pointing simulation to validate the pointing requirements. Keep the funding and do not change the requirements.
