Open Dataset
A compiled directory of satellite operators tracked by the ISN Orbital Index. Includes operator names, country affiliations, websites, and public ticker symbols where available. Derived from publicly available sources including FCC filings, company disclosures, and orbital activity records.
The Operator Directory is compiled from publicly available sources including FCC filings, company disclosures, satellite licensing records, and orbital activity records tracked by the ISN Orbital Index. Each operator entry is derived from deterministic identity resolution across multiple data sources. Ticker symbols are included where a public company relationship has been identified and linked.
This dataset is regenerated on each request to reflect the current state of the Orbital Index operator snapshot cache. The version string corresponds to the generation date. No automatic version history is maintained — each download reflects the latest available data.
