Object image linking of earth orbiting objects in the presence of cosmics

As results it has to be stated. Firstly, the automatic discrimination of cosmics and non-resolved object images on single frames remains difficult, especially for traces with a size of only a few pixels. Secondly, on observation series, the object image linking of GEO, GTO and MEO object images is reliable for a moderate amount of object images or cosmics on the frames if at least three object images are available per object and for four object images per object even in the presence of several hundred cosmics or images on the frames with a simple approach of an updated linear accelerated movement even over long observation series.
