maneuver-detect — labelled maneuver dataset (v0.3.0)
The labelled dataset behind maneuver-detect: a
curated set of satellites whose maneuvers are known from public operator announcements, paired with
the mean-element TLE history those maneuvers show up in. Versioned in lockstep with the library and
its model checkpoints.
Recipe-first distribution
The raw multi-year TLE history comes from Space-Track, whose terms do not permit redistributing the data or analysis derived from it — so the raw series is never shipped here. Instead the dataset is published as a pinned reconstruction recipe you rebuild locally from your own Space-Track account, verified byte-for-byte by a content-hash manifest:
| File | What it is |
|---|---|
recipe.json |
Pinned catalogue: each object's NORAD id, class, label source, fetch window. |
labels.json |
Parsed operator maneuver labels (epoch / window / type / Δv if given). |
manifest.json |
One SHA-256 per reconstructed series — the byte-for-byte integrity check. |
splits.json |
The frozen, leak-free temporal-holdout train / val / test partition. |
Reconstruct and verify with the package (Space-Track credentials in the environment):
pip install maneuver-detect
export SPACETRACK_USERNAME='you@example.com' SPACETRACK_PASSWORD='...'

Class scope
- LEO — DORIS/IDS altimetry satellites (the Δv-labelled core) and SPOT imaging satellites.
- MEO — GPS (FCSTDV NANUs) and Galileo (PLN_MANV NAGUs); epoch-only.
- GEO — geostationary satellites: the GOES weather satellites carry operator-announced labels from the NOAA OSPO navigation summary, the QZS-3/6 satellites carry QZSS OHI operator Δv, and the Meteosat/Himawari satellites are self-labelled by longitude-drift inspection (best-effort).
- IGSO — the inclined/eccentric-geosynchronous QZSS satellites (QZS-2/4/1R), new in v0.3, with executed-Δv labels from the Cabinet Office of Japan's Operational History Information (OHI) files.
- HEO — the high-eccentricity regime is a reserved class with no objects yet: no ingestible maneuver source exists and self-labelling on deep-space TLEs is perturbation-dominated, so it is deferred to a future source.
