About the project Solar Orbiter:

·         Supporting  of Software Design activity of EGSE (Electrical Ground Support Equipment) for testing the DPU (Device Processing Unit) of SWA sensor( Solar Wind Analyzer)

·         Development of EGSE software, supported by a graphical interface, to verify the behavior of the DPU through the testing procedures, S/C simulator based on database SCOS 2000 ASCII MIB containing TM/TC and sensors emulators to simulate commands from/to the instruments.

• Mainactivities and responsibilities

In the context of analysis of methodologies calibration, one ofthehighlighted scientific needs is the precise cross-calibration of images acquired at different times on the same area. The cross-calibration is a relative radiometric calibration, an image is normalized with respect to an another image chosen as reference. This process, requires the selection of the pseudo invariant features (PIF), that are the area of the images that preserve the spectral characteristics, that can be considered stable and are suitable to be the reference for cross-calibration.

My study is based on the research and implementation of an algorithm that allows the automatic selection of the PIF in a time series of images.
