LaunchDetect publishes the only public dataset of independent thermal-IR rocket-launch detections, sourced from NOAA GOES-18, NOAA GOES-19, and JMA Himawari-9 calibrated Level 1b radiance products. Useful for orbital-mechanics studies, launch-cadence analysis, plume-physics research, and Space Domain Awareness (SDA) academic work.
Public JSON feeds, RSS, and schema.org Event JSON-LD per launch enable easy machine ingestion. Business-tier access adds webhooks on detection plus the full archive going back to launch.
