They have developed satellite launch vehicles PSLV and GSLV to place the satellites in the required orbits.

The Challenge

Data itself, along with the sheer volume of it, was key to this organization in the research field. Accessing the data through servers was always a challenge and this space agency searched for a reliable solution which could store and access this large amount of data.

This center provides this data to scientists, governmental agencies, and private organizations across the globe. The data is used for a myriad of purposes, including but not limited to monitoring of the environment, improvement of accuracy of weather reporting, and assistance of disaster relief agencies, space behaviours.
