At Infostellar, we know every satellite mission is different. Without aggregated, easily searchable information on ground stations, the pursuit of your ideal ground segment can look like a long process of information gathering and negotiations with ground station owners around the globe.

To address this, we’ve compiled technical specifications from ground station owners around the world into an online planner which enables you to identify suitable ground stations, just by entering your communications requirements.

As you start to approach the task of scoping your ground segment, negotiating prices and integrating with ground stations, our planning tool can guide and inform you through this process. And if you’d like to use stations you’ve found in the tool, simply connect to them through StellarStation’s unified contracting and integration process.

If you’ve found ground stations you’d like to use, reach out to us using our website Contact form, or at info@istellar.com. Our team will be in touch to get your account set up so you can start scheduling passes. Our ever-expanding network means that we’ll be able to support your communication needs as your business grows, even if your satellite communication channels change over time.

If you haven’t found any ground stations that meet your requirements, let us know what you’re looking for! We are continuously updating the tool with details of new ground stations and would be more than happy to have a chat about how we can expand our network to fit your needs.
