Accurate data is needed as researchers study weather on Mars – VTT’s analysis significantly improved accuracy of measurement results
Press release, 9 August 2022 Researchers at VTT have succeeded in making data collected on NASA’s Mars mission more accurate by using mathematics. As a result of VTT’s error compensation model, the accuracy of relative humidity measurements significantly exceeded mission requirements. This massive reduction in uncertainty means that planetary scientists and other researchers around the world can now benefit from this measurement data as they study questions ranging from Mars’ atmosphere and water cycle to its historical habitability.Since landing on Mars in February 2021, Nasa’s
