Official Description

Space Systems Command (SSC) operates a worldwide network of ground-based ionospheric sensors, the Ionospheric Ground Sensors (IGS), that gives the Air Force, the Space Force, and their mission partners near real-time data on the ionosphere. The network includes 17 Next Generation Ionosonde (NEXION) vertical-incidence radars, 8 ground-based scintillation and total electron content (ISTO) receiver sites, and a central sustainment server. These data feed space weather forecasts, alerts, warnings, a...
