The ELKORR program for least squares estimation of satellite orbits, described using flow charts, is written in ALGOL. A listing of the program is given. Perturbations due to earth oblateness, dynamical air-drag influence, and luni-solar gravitational influence are taken into account. The program was used with the Aeros and Symphonie satellites.
