Space Data Integrator

Space Data Integrator is a process/service platform or tool being developed by the US FAA to integrate space launch and reentry into the US National Airspace System.[https://arc.aiaa.org/doi/10.2514/6.2016-0218 Space Data Integrator: FAA's Innovative Platform for Launch and Reentry Operations] It intends to oversee and manage airspace safety during space operations, ensuring the safety of vehicles more efficiently than manual processes.{{Cite journal |last=Frodge |first=Ryan |last2=Murray |first2=Daniel |date=June 2022 |title=Space data integration |url=https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S2468896722000325 |journal=Journal of Space Safety Engineering |language=en |volume=9 |issue=2 |pages=182–188 |doi=10.1016/j.jsse.2022.02.015|url-access=subscription }}

History

The project was initiated in 2015.[https://www.faa.gov/about/office_org/headquarters_offices/ast/reports_studies/library/media/NAS_Integration_Mazzotta.pdf Improving the Integration of Launch and Reentry Operations into the National Airspace System Mazzotta and Murray. 2015?]{{rp|3}}

No funds for SDI were included in the FAA 2018 budget request.[https://spacepolicyonline.com/news/no-good-news-for-faa-space-office-in-fy2018-request/ NO GOOD NEWS FOR FAA SPACE OFFICE IN FY2018 REQUEST May 2017]

In March 2018 the FAA initiated a Market Survey on the requirements for SDI.{{cite web | url=https://govtribe.com/opportunity/federal-contract-opportunity/space-data-integrator-sdi-29525 | title=Space Data Integrator (SDI) 29525 }}
