A terrestrial radio receiving site.
Public Ground Observations
OSOIX filters SatNOGS records locally to completed-good observations and keeps them separate from orbital model state. Artifact availability and NORAD linkage are evidence context, not automatic coordinate or telemetry verification.
Ground stations can record radio passes from satellites. OSOIX shows completed good public records and links them to NORAD IDs when possible.
People around the world have radio stations that listen for satellites. OSOIX can show public records of those listening sessions, but a record does not mean we control the satellite.

Operator & learner steps
- Open Public Observations.
- Search by satellite, station or NORAD ID.
- Check observation start/end and status.
- Inspect whether waterfall/audio/decoded-data fields are present.
- Open the original SatNOGS record for source provenance.
What the terms mean
A time-frequency visualization of received radio energy.
A public record field indicating decoded artifacts may be present; OSOIX does not independently certify their correctness.
What this surface does not mean
- Observation record ≠ verified spacecraft health.
- Observation record ≠ verified model coordinate.
- Observation record ≠ command authority.
