After intensive use over the past 6 years at TAS-I’s premises in Rome, the complex testing and simulation system returns to Rovsing’s premises in Skovlunde for a thorough check, replacement of worn out items, software update, and recalibration in order to be used further in the Sentinel-1 C/D programme. This contract has a minimum value of 1.94 Mio. DKK / 260.8 kEUR and will be amended in accordance to the amount of refurbishment actually required.
