Description: NextGen proposes the novel Spacecraft Anomaly Resolution Knowledgebase (SPARK) secure and centralized anomaly database and space environment anomaly analysis tool. SPARK extends the relevant Space Radiation Intelligence System (SPRINTS; Engell et al., 2017) framework to offer highly reactive user dashboards capable of visualizing 35+ years of space weather time-series and associated event (e.g., solar flare or inputted anomaly) data at 1-minute resolutions in seconds. SPARK has powerful time series data annotation tools for users to add to space weather or anomaly event information with associated APIs for database input and retrieval. Users securely input satellite diagnostic information – either events or time-series that can be used in additional analysis. Users can choose to share their anomalies or use them in their own secure SPARK deployment with other shared anomalies.

Benefits: SPARK is aligned to fulfill NASA engineering needs regarding spacecraft anomaly databases related to space environments. Used by NASA engineering and space weather teams, SPARK will be able to support human spaceflight missions to the Moon and Mars as well as support NASA satellite operations. It will provide a scalable anomaly and fused space weather environment database with relevant workflows to support anomaly resolution and understanding.

DoD, NOAA, and communities like the Coordination Group for Meteorological Satellites (CGMS) require anomaly databasing to support anomaly resolution. Spacecraft insurers often require anomaly reports for insured spacecraft. SPARK will support these organizations and further grow the SPARK anomaly database and anomaly resolution knowledge.
