session 1

Title: Space Debris Measurements and Orbit Determination SST (1)
type: oral
Description: This session will address all aspects related to the measurement of space objects and orbit determination. It will cover both ground-based and space-based techniques, as well as methods for identification and characterization of objects. Special attention will be given to data processing, orbit accuracy, and strategies to improve coverage and reliability of surveillance and tracking networks.
