Station Operations

ILRS Tracking Stations range to a constellation of approved satellites (including the Moon), contained in a list of satellites compiled and approved by the ILRS Governing Board, through the use of state of the art laser tracking equipment and data transmission facilities which allow for a rapid (at least daily) data transmission to one or more Operations and/or Data Centers. Stations in the ILRS network must follow ILRS requirements for tracking, setting priorities, and flowing data to the users.
