To ease the required manual effort, the vision for the CREAM system takes over a great number of related activities: evaluate potential conjunctions, generate manoeuvre plans and support with the decision-making process, coordination with other operators, as well as monitoring by potential future regulators.

I didn't realise we were still doing this manually. As the vast majority of satellite orbits are catalogued, this seems like a perfect candidate for automation.
