Application Research of Big Data for Launch Support System at Space Launch Site

At the space launch site, the big data of the launch support system comes from the construction of the launch site, the ground service, the comprehensive support process, and launch mission organization and command. The big data is extensive sources, various types, large scale, and rapid growth. The big data application can improve the data processing and management efficiency for the launch support system. Then the application can enhance the support capability of flight mission and success rate. This paper analyzes the existing data application of launch support system. The challenges and requirements of big data application are studied by the construction of intelligent launch site. The application pattern and target are put forward from four aspects of launch mission organization and command, mission application, comprehensive support, and information security. The classification of big data is proposed for a launch support system. The architecture of big data application system is designed, which meets the application pattern and target. It lays a foundation for the future big data project at the launch site.
