All organisations active in the UK who supply, or make use of, the space sector are invited to participate. The survey has historically split the space economy into upstream and downstream segments. The 2014 study is seeking to expand the scope to explicitly include space-enabled value-added applications (e.g. GPS location-based services, earth observation data processing, meteorology, mapping, etc.). If you believe the survey is relevant for your organisation, we welcome your participation.

You can download a letter from the UK Space Agency Chief Executive explaining the background and importance of the survey below.
