Description
This occupation is part of the artificial satellite projects that incorporate applications aimed at offering various services: navigation, communications, meteorology or remote sensing satellites, among others. In these space projects, there are two fundamental parts: the on-board segment (the software part installed in the satellite) and the ground segment. The ground segment is understood as the entire set of systems (base stations, communications networks, etc.) that are used to communicate with the satellite. In other words, the systems that make it possible to receive and send the information necessary for performing the tasks for which these applications were built. The ground segment programmer is in charge of the part of the application that is on Earth: design, programme, install and test the satellite communication modules. They are also responsible for obtaining data and presenting the information to the user.
