EUROPEAN
OPTICAL
NETWORK

A Scalable System for Trusted Optical SST Services

The European Optical Network (EON) is a global system of passive optical sensors, developed under ESA contract, designed to deliver precise and timely data on objects orbiting Earth. Its focus is on high-altitude objects (mainly GEO).

By distributing sensors across all longitudes and enabling smart tasking and data sharing, EON ensures global coverage, redundancy, and resilience— even in the face of adverse weather or technical issues.

Core Capabilities

  • Automated data collection: astrometric, photometric, light curves and ephemeris data for catalogue maintenance.
  • Collision avoidance support: monitoring close approaches.
  • Fragmentation and manoeuvre analysis.
  • Unified interfaces: API + WebUI for easy access to services and data.

Comprehensive Solution

At the core of EON is an integrated software-hardware platform connecting robotic observatories with cloud-based SST services.

 

  • Fully automated sub-catalogue tracking for selected satellites
  • Improved precision and data timeliness
  • Expanded sensor network, with upgraded units from the Panoptes-Solaris and Sybilla Constellation

Strategic Impact

EON provides Europe with an independent and scalable alternative to external SST systems like USSTRATCOM or EU SST. With 95% uptime, high automation, and robust security, it’s a future-proof foundation for space safety services.
