On 6 October 2025, the Optical Nucleus Network (ONN) Workshop returns to ESA\/ESOC, focusing on the growth and evolution of optical ground station networks. The one-day event will convene experts from industry, academia, and agencies to address system design, interoperability, and mission support strategies.<\/p>\n
Reliable atmospheric monitoring is essential for the operation of free-space optical communication (FSOC) networks, where cloud cover can disrupt data transmission. Reuniwatt has been pioneering cloud observation and forecasting technologies for more than 15 years, deploying all-sky imagers worldwide. Our approach combining skycams, satellite imagery and AI, enables accurate, short-term cloud forecasting to support optical ground station (OGS) operations and handover strategies across networked stations, ensuring high link availability around the clock.<\/p>\n
Reuniwatt will participate in the Optical Nucleus Network (ONN) Workshop on 6 October 2025 at ESA\/ESOC, Darmstadt, where experts from agencies, industry, and academia will gather to discuss the evolution of optical ground station networks and their role in future space missions. Our poster, \u201cOrchestrating free-space optical communications with cloud observation and forecasting<\/em>\u201d, presents how combining AI, satellite data, and all-sky imagers can support continuous FSOC operations. You can meet our CTO Nicolas S\u00e9bastien during the poster session to discuss how Reuniwatt\u2019s solutions contribute to the scaling of optical networks.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
