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
- OMM-native, six-digit-ID complete. Ingested exclusively via OMM JSON/CSV,
so it includes satellites cataloged after 2026-07-11 ("SARAMAGO", NORAD ID
- that legacy-TLE pipelines silently drop.
- 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.
- Danger-zone clustering. 25 km altitude bands scored by a K-Means model over crowding, debris share, ownership concentration and conjunction load.
- ARIMA growth forecast. Weekly catalog-size forecast to 2031 with 95% CI and holdout MAPE.
- Documented catalog-overflow gap. The public catalog (70,355 rows) vs the official counter (100,403): the withheld 7xxxx-9xxxx block is quantified.

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- Public SATCAT excludes the unpublished 7xxxx-9xxxx catalog-number block; row-level records cover ~70k of ~100k officially assigned numbers.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).
