A Diverse, Purpose-Built Sensor Fleet
SGSN combines gimbaled, cued telescopes and staring, uncued optical arrays operating across visible, SWIR, and NIR bands. This layered hardware approach supports day and night operations, targeted follow-up, and persistent monitoring from LEO through xGEO—all within a single global network.
Capabilities Others Can’t Match
By combining wide-field survey systems with narrow-field, high-precision follow-up telescopes in the same network, SGSN supports observation workflows that enable higher-confidence orbit determination, event characterization, and custody maintenance. This combination—spanning uncued detection to precision characterization—is foundational to the accuracy and reliability of Slingshot’s orbital intelligence.
Hardware Integrated Into the Processing Stack
SGSN observations flow directly into Slingshot’s processing, fusion, and analysis suite, where raw measurements are refined through orbit determination, propagation, and multi-sensor fusion. This tight integration ensures sensor data is not just collected—but transformed into high-quality orbital states, conjunction assessments, and mission-ready analytics without manual handoff or external stitching.
Featured Capabilities
Data Catalog
Central data hub connecting the Slingshot Global Sensor Network (SGSN) and Sovereign Space Object Tracking (SSOT). Provides continuous, high-precision orbital intelligence through near real-time sensor data, advanced processing, and on-demand tasking for mission-ready awareness.
Tracking Data
On-demand orbital tracking service for specific objects and event-driven observations. Task sensors, submit custom data requests, and receive curated results powered by Slingshot’s tasking and tracking infrastructure.
Processing, Fusion and Analysis Tools
Processing and fusion systems that transform raw sensor observations into high-fidelity orbital products and actionable insights.
