Cédric Pralet, a researcher at ONERA, specializes in decision-making algorithms for satellite optimization and Earth observation. His work on the Coverage Service Domino within the DOMINO-E project focuses on efficiently dispatching observation requests across multiple satellite systems. By introducing a federation layer, DOMINO-E optimizes resources, reduces coverage time, and enhances flexibility, addressing complex societal needs like climate change monitoring and disaster response.

Optimizing the Skies: Gauthier Picard on Revolutionizing Satellite Image Acquisition with AI
Interview with Gauthier Piccard, a Senior Research Scientist at ONERA and Co-Head of the Artificial Intelligence Lab. Piccard leverages AI and optimization algorithms in the Domino-E project to improve satellite image acquisition. By automating satellite coordination, his work ensures efficient and rapid image capture across large areas. Using AI-driven approaches, Piccard tackles complex scheduling and decision-making challenges, helping satellites work together to deliver high-quality data for critical missions like environmental monitoring and disaster response.
Ariane 6: New Launcher Capacities for Europe’s Space Industries
Europe once again has independent access to space. Europe will also benefit from this in the area of Earth observation.
Fostering Collaboration in Earth Observation: Introducing the Domino Architecture
Domino-E contributes to the Domino architecture, creating a novel way of cooperation in European Earth observation. The Domino framework presents a groundbreaking approach to Earth observation (EO) by fostering a collaborative environment where industry and science work together throughout the entire development lifecycle, from initial concept to final validation of modular EO building blocks.…
Domino-E at the 23rd International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent System
ONERA’s Gauthier Picard presented his work at the AAMAS’24 in Auckland, New Zealand. Agent-based and multi-agent systems (MAS) in space offer a promising approach for modeling and solving distributed, complex and dynamic problems. Sample applications include multiple spacecraft operations and maintenance, onboard-ground coordination, mission simulation, multi-mission operation, autonomous navigation, and collective robotics. The Domino-E project…
