Talk:Technology Trends/Low-Earth Orbit System
Can we add stuff - in particular meshnetworks and swarm technology? data fusion of drone and ground sensor data?
data fusion of satellite, drone and ground sensors to detect objects of interest or to cause an event to happen (ie detection of forest fire, flood, oil spill etc...) https://www.mdpi.com/journal/remotesensing/special_issues/Multi-Sensor_Data_Fusion_UAVs_RS_Environmental_Applications https://www.mdpi.com/2072-4292/12/9/1357 www.darpa.mil/program/ocean-of-things https://www.libelium.com/ https://phys.org/news/2012-07-swarming-drones-sea.html https://www.militaryaerospace.com/communications/article/14167541/cloud-computing-mesh-network-satellites

all of this technology is coming quickly from the launching of smallsats through induction or the like https://www.spinlaunch.com/ https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/scientists-create-laser-system-that-could-get-to-mars-in-just-45-days/ar-AATXiMv https://phys.org/news/2022-02-laser-mars.html
to meshnetworks and swarm technology (ie a group of satellites autonomously communicate with each other with various sensors and determine that a potential threat or event of interest exists in a AOI - thus, drones are deployed which drops ground sensors in a high risk high potential area then satellites swarm that AOI from above to determine the possibility/probability of a potential threat or the outcome of an event (reactive)) to cloud in space... to even 3D printing in space! https://www.3dnatives.com/en/fleet-space-has-developed-fully-3d-printed-satellites-030120214/ https://www.space.com/satellites-antennas-3d-printed-in-space
will canada be ready!?!? hope so... we need investment! we need R&D dollars! we need innovation and entrepreneurs to lead the way...
