This book combines elementary theory from computer science with real-world challenges in global
geodetic observation based on examples from the Geodetic Observatory Wettzell Germany. It
starts with a step-by-step introduction to developing stable and safe scientific software to
run successful software projects. The use of software toolboxes is another essential aspect
that leads to the application of generative programming. An example is a generative network
middleware that simplifies communication. One of the book's main focuses is on explaining a
potential strategy involving autonomous production cells for space geodetic techniques. The
complete software design of a satellite laser ranging system is taken as an example. Such
automated systems are then combined for global interaction using secure communication tunnels
for remote access. The network of radio telescopes is used as a reference. Combined
observatories form coordinated multi-agent systems and offer solutions for operational aspects
of the Global Geodetic Observing System (GGOS) with regard to Industry 4.0.
