Orbital Commons — Satellite Traffic & Conjunction Risk Analytics Dataset

Processed and enriched datasets derived from CelesTrak's public GP / SATCAT / SOCRATES Plus feeds, produced by the Orbital Commons Medallion pipeline on 2026-08-22. Every table ships as Parquet with explicit dtypes.

Why this dataset is different

  1. OMM-native, six-digit-ID complete. Ingested exclusively via OMM JSON/CSV, so it includes satellites cataloged after 2026-07-11 ("SARAMAGO", NORAD ID
    1. that legacy-TLE pipelines silently drop.
  2. Pre-computed conjunction-event log with reported Pc. 148,985 screened events from one full SOCRATES Plus run with TCA, miss distance, closing speed, max probability and dilution - ready for analysis without re-running STK.
  3. Danger-zone clustering. 25 km altitude bands scored by a K-Means model over crowding, debris share, ownership concentration and conjunction load.
  4. ARIMA growth forecast. Weekly catalog-size forecast to 2031 with 95% CI and holdout MAPE.
  5. Documented catalog-overflow gap. The public catalog (70,355 rows) vs the official counter (100,403): the withheld 7xxxx-9xxxx block is quantified.

Tables

File Rows Grain Highlights
dim_space_object.parquet 70,355 one object name, intl designator, owner state, nation, operator attribution, type (PAY/R/B/DEB), ops status, RCS m2, launch/decay dates, mean altitude, regime band, GP freshness
fact_conjunction_events.parquet 148,985 event primary/secondary objects + names, TCA UTC, miss km, closing speed km/s, max probability, dilution km, regimes of both sides
fact_catalog_growth.parquet 25,435 day since 1957 cumulative cataloged/decayed/on-orbit, daily deltas, numbering-format era
fact_spatial_density.parquet 74 run_date x 25 km band counts by type, density per 1000 km3, owner-share HHI, clutter ratio
fact_orbital_inventory.parquet 29 run_date x regime x type object and active-payload counts
analytics_band_clusters.parquet 73 25 km band K-Means cluster + risk label (Quiet/Moderate/Busy/Critical), features
analytics_catalog_forecast.parquet 260 forecast week ARIMA(1,1,1) point forecast + 95% CI, holdout MAPE
analytics_foster_topn.parquet 50 top-risk event our Foster/Chan Pc vs SOCRATES reported Pc

Quickstart

import pandas as pd
obj = pd.read_parquet("dim_space_object.parquet")
con = pd.read_parquet("fact_conjunction_events.parquet")

top = con.nlargest(10, "max_probability")
print(top[["primary_name", "secondary_name", "min_range_km", "max_probability"]])

Column notes

  • NORAD_CAT_ID / object_id: integer catalog number (includes six-digit IDs >= 100000).
  • object_type: PAY payload, R/B rocket body, DEB debris, UNK unknown.
  • regime: VLEO <350km, LEO-Constellation 350-650, LEO-SSO 650-950, Legacy-Debris 950-1500, Upper-LEO 1500-2000, MEO, GEO, HEO/Deep-Space.
  • max_probability: collision probability reported by SOCRATES Plus (STK/CAT).
  • shell_hhi: Herfindahl index of OWNER-state shares within a band (0-1).

Limitations

  • Public SATCAT excludes the unpublished 7xxxx-9xxxx catalog-number block; row-level records cover ~70k of ~100k officially assigned numbers.
  • Conjunction table reflects ONE SOCRATES run (7-day lookahead); it is not a historical archive.
  • Pc re-derivations use spherical-covariance assumptions (see methodology tab of the companion dashboard).
