The Minor Planet Center (MPC) is the single worldwide location for receipt and distribution of positional measurements of minor planets, comets and outer irregular natural satellites of the major planets. Crucially, this includes Near Earth Objects (NEOs) and Potentially Hazardous Asteroids (PHAs). Thusly, real-time insight into the MPC’s operations is necessary. We present “dashboarding” tools that provide assurances of the MPC’s processing functionality, data on its performance, and statistics on its archive.
