ISS Research Statistics

Which agencies and research categories are represented, how investigations are associated with listed expeditions, which recur, who participates and how complete the information is.

Research Through Time

  • Calendar views appear once the expedition reference mapping holds reviewed, sourced dates.
Investigations listed per reporting periodDistinct investigations listed in each period. "First listed" uses each investigation's full history, before any display filter.

  • Unit: listed expedition label (single or paired, as the source lists it). Paired labels (for example 21/22) are kept as listed and never split into their expeditions.
  • Period totals overlap: an investigation listed in several periods counts once in each. They are never added together.
Category composition: Expedition 83 and Expedition 84Shares of each period's listed investigations, with the change in percentage points.

Statistics built
2026-10-16 08:24:50 UTC
Population
3,004 distinct investigations in scope of 3,004 in the catalog, identified by identity_key.
Reporting periods
Unit: listed expedition label (single or paired, as the source lists it). Paired labels are kept as listed; "0" and other special values are kept apart until a reviewed reference gives them a meaning.
Counting
Counts are distinct investigations. Period totals overlap and are never added together; calendar totals count each investigation once per year.
People and organizations
Names are parsed conservatively (entries are split on line breaks and semicolons, never on commas) and kept as written next to their normalised form. Spelling variants stay separate until an administrator reviews an alias. Nationality is never inferred from the sponsoring agency.
Limitations
The catalog lists investigations by reporting period; it does not record when work happened, how much it cost or whether it succeeded. A listing is not an outcome.

ISS Commercial Activity and Opportunities

Which investigations have documented commercial participation or objectives, which companies take part in which roles, how participation changes, which services and facilities support it, and where the evidence suggests opportunities to investigate.

Company Explorer

  • Definition: Documented commercial participation. Counts use reviewed classifications and source facts; unreviewed suggestions are not counted.

Commercial evidence
Each commercial dimension is recorded separately with its state, review status and evidence basis. Public counts use reviewed classifications and source facts only. Absence of evidence is unknown, never a negative. No revenue, market size, profitability, return or success probability is estimated.
Limitations
The catalog lists investigations by reporting period; it does not record when work happened, how much it cost or whether it succeeded. A listing is not an outcome.
