document: Satellite image collection optimization Imaging satellite systems represent a high capital cost . Optimizing the collection of images is critical for both satisfying customer orders and building a sustainable satellite operations business . We describe the functions of an operational , multivariable , time dynamic optimization system that maximizes the daily collection of satellite images . A graphical user interface allows the operator to quickly see the results of what if adjustments to an image collection plan . Used for both long range planning and daily collection scheduling of Space Imaging 's IKONOS satellite , the satellite control and tasking -LRB- SCT -RRB- software allows collection commands to be altered up to 10 min before upload to the satellite
