Abstract

BepiColombo is an interdisciplinary ESA-JAXA mission to explore the planet Mercury. The Science Ground Segment (SGS), located at the European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC), will be in charge of the ESA's Mercury Planetary Orbiter (MPO) scientific operations including data processing, preliminary analysis, archiving and distribution to the instrument teams and the science community. This paper describes the SGS development methodology and how it has been progressively migrated into an Agile Scrum, but maintaining the information consistency and the adherence to ECSS standards.
