•  Not complete (week 40) Mariusz Eivind Grøtte Get preliminary results from EOIR tool in STK (or MODTRAN) on "what can we see from space"

•  Not complete (week 40) Julian VeisdalUnknown User (julianve) First revision of PCB

•  Not complete (week 40) Roger BirkelandUnknown User (rogerbi) A cost benefit analysis of power usage vs compression for comms.
•  Not complete (week 40) Roger BirkelandUnknown User (rogerbi) Present architecture for ground station, how will it work. Decide when upgrade happens, does that involve getting the total package such as h/w and s/w? And need a data system for storing and archiving.

•  Not complete (week 40) Joao F. FortunaUnknown User (joaoff) Report of what has been done with HSI imaging
•  Not complete (week 40) Give feedback on Gantt chart (ALL) - Still want a list of activities from each - respond to emails

Data from HSI

Struggling to find the real SNR. Joao have calculated some SNR values based on the parameters based on the camera specification. It seems to be a high SNR for space application, and we could expect more noise from real usage of the camera. Should try to find the total SNR. in the visual spectra we have theoretical good values for SNR. A lower frame rate gives a better SNR, and an realistic value can be 15, which is below what has been used in current calculations.
