# On-Demand Event-Driven Tracking

Slingshot's Space Object Tracking gives operators the ability to task sensors, request targeted observations, and access curated tracking results from the Slingshot Global Sensor Network (SGSN). Whether validating an unexpected maneuver, increasing revisit rates on a high-interest object, or supporting an investigation, Data Tracking provides a flexible, mission-aligned service layer for precision orbital monitoring.

## Key Features

- **Targeted Object Tracking**: Submit object-specific tracking requests to increase revisit rates and obtain refreshed orbital data on satellites of interest.
- **Event-Driven Observation Tasking**: Initiate tracking in response to maneuvers, conjunction alerts, anomalies, uncorrelated tracks, or other operational triggers.
- **Curated Tracking Outputs**: Receive structured observations, updated state vectors, propagated ephemerides, and quality metrics—delivered via Platform or API.
- **Multi-Domain Sensor Access**: Leverage optical, radar, and RF observations available through the Slingshot Global Sensor Network to support tracking across orbital regimes.
- **Integrated Workflow Support**: Automatically route tracking results into Agatha AI, TALOS AI, Digital Space Twin, and the Data Catalog for analysis, visualization, and archival.
- **API-Driven Tasking & Retrieval**: Programmatically submit tracking requests, monitor status, and ingest observation products into custom pipelines using Developer APIs.

## Example Use Cases

### Spacecraft Operators  
Request targeted observations that validate maneuvers, refine orbital states, and support conjunction response workflows.

### Government & Defense
Monitor high-interest objects, investigate anomalous activity, and strengthen custody during dynamic events.

### Commercial Satellite Operators
Monitor fleet health, confirm operational events, and supply updated tracking data for downstream analytics and customer reporting.

### Insurers & Investors  
Verify incidents, evaluate anomaly context, and inform risk analysis with fresh observational data.

### Researchers & Academia
Obtain custom observation sets for studying new objects, validating models, and supporting scientific experimentation.
