2014
In order to promote contributions from the community, ESA/ESTEC has commissioned this course with the specific aim of expanding knowledge on how to extend the core SPIS capabilities. It was always intended that SPIS would be a toolkit that could be readily modified and expanded and its the modular architecture was adopted for this reason. However, our experience has been that the knowledge on how to modify the code has not expanded far from the original developers and few other users have had the confidence to make modifications to the code.There are a few spaces available on this course and you are invited to apply to attend until all spaces are filled. There is no charge. The registration dealine has been extended.Please see here for further information.2013
