25 years of experience in data processing for navigation performance.

Now across Navigation, Earth Observation and Telecommunications.
Our mission

Understand performance.
At every level.

Signals · Orbits · Systems · Services · Users

Turn satellite data into traceable performance assessments, meaningful indicators and engineering insight.

PULSE brings together processing tools, estimation algorithms, reference products and analytical methods to characterise satellite systems end to end.

We analyse how satellite orbit and clock errors, atmospheric estimation, signal characteristics and receiver processing propagate into service performance and user outcomes. The same engineering approach connects navigation, Earth observation and telecommunications.

Ground observations / Global perspective

The observations.
The starting point for PULSE.

Receiver observations are the raw material of PULSE. Explore how station measurements enter the toolbox for processing, quality control and performance assessment.
