The paper considers development of an intelligent system for real-time management of groups of small satellites, as well as an approach to its implementation built on the basis of multi-agent technology. It discusses the main disadvantages of traditional planning systems currently used to manage various space missions, which complicate their application with new-generation multi-satellite orbital groups. A brief problem statement for planning the operation of a space observation system is given. The architecture of the developed system is proposed, describing the functions of the main modules and screens, which make it possible to process applications for imaging of observation objects entering the system in real time. Results of experimental studies are also presented. They demonstrate applicability of the proposed approach to solving problems of managing groups of small satellites to increase efficiency of using resources of the space system. Finally, the prospects for development and application of the system are discussed.
