This application is under development to make it fit in with the new site. While full functionality should still exist, the page layouts may appear incorrectly. We're working on integrating this application in to the new site and will have it ready as soon as we can.
This table shows the satellites being used by CLS Argos at any time for the entire dataset.
Use this table to translate the single character satellite ID in the PRV file to the correct Satellite ID code (the NSSDC catalogue number). Note that the same single character in the PRV file can refer to different satellites at different times! This table has been verified for the entire duration of the dataset.
