Since December 2018, the CICERO constellation of nanosatellites has been producing more than a 1000 occultations per day from Glonass and GPS signals. The constellation undergoes continuous improvement from additional satellite launches and software updates on orbit. A snapshot of the current status will be presented, along with an overview of some of the data calibration techniques used and the results of some quality studies that will inform future CICERO satellite architectures.
