Maneuver Designer

The Maneuver Designer enables operators to construct, simulate, and analyze spacecraft maneuvers in the context of active conjunctions or orbital planning workflows. Operators define maneuver parameters, evaluate trajectory changes, and assess the impact on conjunction risk.

Each maneuver plan is visualized in the orbital context and may be compared against baseline or previous variants to evaluate effectiveness. Designed maneuvers integrate directly with Satcat's risk assessment and coordination workflows.

note

Maneuver Designer requires a Satcat Operations Pro or Enterprise tier subscription.

Maneuver Projects​

A Maneuver Project is the container for one or more design variants. Each variant contains a unique set of maneuver parameters and can be used to test different mitigation strategies. Variant history enables iteration and comparison across planning options.

Project Types​

Distinct project types support mission-specific workflows:

  • COLA: For designing and evaluating collision avoidance maneuvers. Includes tradespace generation and event-linked geometry analysis.
  • Sequencer (Coming soon): For multi-objective planning such as orbit raising, station-keeping, and rendezvous or proximity operations.
