As part of ensuring the freedom to operate in space, the ability to protect space-related capabilities from either attack or 
interference is critical. Monitoring for indications of threats to satellites and protecting those satellites from attack is 
part of counterspace, and consists of several disciplines focused on tracking and analyzing other space objects.

		<b>New foreign launch detection and tracking.</b> Identifying, assessing, and categorizing launches in a timely fashion is an 
		important element of ensuring the safety of existing on-orbit assets. Users can take advantage of AGI's analysis 
		modules to understand which assets collect data the fastest and where collection gaps might exist. That data can be used 
		in the orbit determination process to enhance trajectory estimates.

		<b>ASAT threat analysis.</b> Combining new foreign launch trajectory estimates with AGI’s conjunction assessment capabilities, 
		operators can quickly determine the subset of space objects potentially threatened. Armed with this information and 
		AGI's trajectory design capabilities, users can study 'the art of the possible' and perform potential orbit maneuver 
		mitigation analyses regarding any particular assets at risk.

		<b>Maneuver detection.</b> Operations personnel need to monitor non-cooperative spacecraft and understand where they are and 
		when they have maneuvered. Included in this is the effort to study asset deployment, real-time maneuver detection of 
		potential adversarial satellites, and tracking of satellites during and throughout a satellite maneuver. This effort 
		utilizes more than 20 different measurement types as input to understand space events as they unfold. AGI tools help 
		perform maneuver detection and reconstruction. Once a maneuver has been detected and analyzed, operators can understand 
		which assets may be at risk and which ones might now be within maneuvering distance.

		<b>Laser illumination detection.</b> Operators need to understand which space assets could be at risk, given known laser locations. 
		Using some of AGI’s unique multi-object inter-visibility tools, personnel can perform geometry analysis on when and where 
		laser illumination probabilities exist. Combining that analysis with maneuver planning capabilities, personnel can evaluate 
		potential mitigation strategies including maneuvering satellites.

		<b>Improved geolocation via improved orbit estimation.</b> Users can take advantage of geostationary satellites to perform a 
		geolocation analysis (TDOA or FDOA) and determine the location of unknown emitter sources. Using AGI's Orbit 
		Determination Tool Kit (ODTK), TDOA and FDOA measurements can be processed to locate such sources, and improve the 
		error ellipse based on the improved orbit estimation provided by the software.
