ExoTrack enhances GEO satellite management
ExoTrack has already demonstrated its value, having been tested and validated by select companies over the last year. This innovative service provides satellite operators with critical information exactly when needed, streamlining operations in GEO.
Utilizing its ExoAnalytic Global Telescope Network (EGTN), which encompasses over 300 ground-based sensors, ExoTrack offers orbit updates with less than 100 meters of uncertainty. The service also minimizes dependence on expensive antenna systems and offers advanced conjunction warnings, giving operators up to 10 days to respond to potential collisions.
Integration of ExoTrack into existing operational tools is straightforward, requiring only an API call. Satellite operators, including GEO operators, have praised the service for its quality and the significant value it adds to their operations.
Alex Cacioni, Director of Flight Dynamics at Viasat, highlighted the efficiency and accuracy of ExoTrack, noting its role in enhancing their orbital determination capabilities. Similarly, Astranis, a satellite internet provider, recognized ExoTrack's contributions to the successful operation and system validation of its first MicroGEO satellite, GEOSat-1.
ExoTrack offers four service tiers, providing a range of features such as orbit states, ephemerides, observation data, and conjunction alerts. These services are now available, with pricing ranging from $1,000 to $4,500 per satellite per month.
Dr. Douglas Hendrix, CEO of ExoAnalytic Solutions, expressed his enthusiasm about the positive impact ExoTrack has already made, citing its proven benefits in antenna calibration, station keeping, slot relocations, geostationary transfer orbit circularization, and safety planning.
