The disclosed technology relates to systems and methods for managing one or more ground stations that track satellites. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium stores information of a ground station at a first position at a first time. A processor receives from a sensor information of the ground station at a second position at a second time. The processor detects an anomaly of a positional characteristic of the ground station based on a difference between the first position and the second position. The processor outputs an instruction to calibrate the ground station based on the detected anomaly.
