In this presentation we introduce measurement and modeling techniques applicable for spacecraft breakup events in the geostationary region. A large number of uncatalogued objects have been found in the geostationary region. Spacecraft breakup event is a possible cause of the population of uncatalogued objects. The techniques to be introduced may include observation planning for breakup fragments, origin identification of uncatalogued objects, and breakup event modeling based on the origin identification result. This research will contribute to space debris mitigation/remediation measures, whose effectiveness largely depends on our understandings of current space situation and its future prediction.
