A Leading Supplier of Scientific Algorithms & Test Bed Development for the Aerospace Industry

The Earth viewed from space is beautiful and the pictures informative. For nearly 30 years AER scientists and engineers have been assisting the companies that design, build and launch instruments that create those images. Regardless of the spectral region, sensor system design requires a detailed knowledge and understanding of Earths atmospheric and oceanographic processe and how this geophysical information translates into what can be measured.

AER is uniquely qualified to assist in all aspects of the sensor lifecycle from the design, development and optimization of sensor concepts, through ground test and operational performance enhancement and radiometric calibration, to the validation and analysis of the measured radiometric and geophysical parameters. AER scientists are experts in across-the-spectrum (ultraviolet through microwave) radiative transfer simulation modeling. Our models can be coupled to geophysical models and databases to provide an algorithm testbed specifically tailored to your program needs. This allows for robust sensor simulation, testing and validation against both simulated data and existing measurements and sensor systems. AER can also provide you with local meteorology forecasts for sensor tasking, as well as studies assessing the impact of space weather events on the spacecraft, instrumentation and communications.
