Scheduling System
Tsinghua Satellite Ground Scheduling
A ground scheduling system for a 400+ person optical satellite photo event with real spacing, feasibility, and task-card constraints.

Problem
A satellite photo event has a short overpass window and little tolerance for manual calculation errors. The system needed to handle physical ratios, spacing, participant-count changes, and field execution.
Workflow
- 01Turn site constraints and participant counts into structured scheduling inputs.
- 02Run a dynamic matrix layout algorithm with strict and flexible modes.
- 03Generate feasibility checks, physical coordinates, and task dispatch cards.
- 04Package the core scheduling module as an open-source reusable tool.
Evidence
Operational scale
The system was delivered for a 400+ participant field scheduling scenario.
Boundary
- This is a ground scheduling and coordination tool, not an orbital-control system.
- Public proof avoids publishing private event operations or any restricted institutional material.
- The value is workflow, algorithmic layout, and field execution support.
Role Mapping
- Product engineering: turns non-standard operations into a reusable tool.
- Algorithmic product: ties computation to real-world physical constraints.
- AI / automation delivery: demonstrates fast translation from ambiguous field need to executable workflow.
