The Interdisciplinary Research Center for Aviation & Space Exploration (IRC-ASE) has been established at King Fahd University (KFUPM) with the aim of advancing space-based research through the development of innovative technologies and approaches. As one of the leading university laboratories in the Kingdom, IRC-ASE is dedicated to creating a scientific and technical environment that fosters innovation and supports the growth of the aviation and space sectors. By promoting the localization of aviation and space-related activities, developing Saudi human capital in space, enhancing national resilience, and promoting national identity, IRC-ASE is aligned with the strategic goals of Kingdom's Vision 2030.
Advanced space data utilization refers to the process of gathering, processing, and analyzing large amounts of data generated from various space-based systems such as satellites, telescopes, and probes. With advancements in technology and computing power, it has become possible to collect and analyze vast amounts of data that can provide valuable insights into Earth's environment, weather patterns, and natural resources. Advanced space data utilization can help scientists and policymakers make informed decisions about issues such as climate change, disaster response, and resource management. It also plays a vital role in the development of space technology and exploration. Learn more about our research in advanced space data utilization.
