Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS)

The Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) is a multi-telescope network located around the world providing a ground-based robotic survey with all-sky coverage detection for near-Earth objects (NEOs). As of April 2022, as part of this network, there were a total of four telescopes, one in South Africa, Chile, and two in Hawaii.

The SBN is the lead PDS node to archive the ATLAS survey reduced images and source detection catalogs. Astrometric measurements of small bodies can be found at the Minor Planet Center (MPC).
