Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for obtaining and managing remote sensing data (e.g. Earth observation data). A remote sensing platform obtains imagery and other remote sensing data of the Earth and other planetary objects. The remote sensing platform includes the International Space Station, or manned and unmanned spacecraft or aircraft. A sensor captures observation data and transmits the data to ground stations on the Earth. A ground segment receives and stores the data. Users use an order management system to place orders for the observation data, which specify processing parameters for the remote sensing data. The remote sensing data is retrieved from storage is processed according to the parameters to generate a data product. This system provides tools for searching and analyzing the data, and for interacting with the system through an API. The system combines data that is produced by the remote sensing platform and by third parties.

Abstract: Methods and systems for implementing proxy layers an a proxy layer management framework for performing integration testing of test components in a target test environment. Proxy layers are established between components that interact in a system and provide an interface based on a communication protocol, such as HTTP or RPC. Proxy layers axe configured, via a proxy layer manager to reroute communication, based on the communication protocol, to and from test components to simulate integration testing of the components in the target environment. Proxy layers may also apply rules that reroute traffic based on certain conditions for more effective, safer, and specific testing. Also, the routed communications may be traced and logged for testing and debugging.
