The Toulouse Space Imagery Receiving Station (SRIS) is located at Issus-Aussaguel, 20 km from Toulouse. It can receive image telemetry whenever the satellite is within a circle 2 500 km radius. For one given satellite, this occurs five times a day (two south-bound passes during the night and three north-bound passes during the day, or vice versa). The average pass duration is 10 minutes, the longest 15. 1, record 2, English, - Toulouse%20Space%20Imagery%20Receiving%20Station
