Eurostat station status software (AIUB)
Station status information is available on a daily and near-real time basis through the EUROSTAT utility. These reports allow the ILRS community to quickly view the status of the stations in the tracking network. ILRS stations can automatically upload status information to EUROSTAT (maintained by the Astronomical Institute of the University of Berne, AIUB) that is then used to generate an overview of the current activities of the tracking stations. The real-time report (http://aiuli3.unibe.ch:8000/cgi-bin/cgi-eurostat) shows actual station operations at that point in time. The daily report (http://aiuli3.unibe.ch:8000/slr/daystatus.year) provides a one-line entry per day showing if stations are currently staffed, operational, off-shift, off-line because of system problems, etc. The ILRS would like to encourage all stations in the network to participate in the daily and, if possible, real-time exchange of status information.

Recent News
The decommissioned geodetic satellite WESTPAC will be returned to the ILRS target list with a low priority, not resulting in a significant burden to station scheduling or impact on other priority targets. In tests led by the ILRS Network and Engineering Standing Committeee (NESC), ILRS stations have demonstrated that with good predictions Westpac can be tracked routinely during the day and night, without a significant impact on the station tracking schedules or at the expense of other ILRS targets.
