Abstract ISON, being an open international project that collects and interprets data about space objects for scientific analysis and spacecraft operators, includes about 40 observational sites. An involvement of two Mexican sites participating in optical observations of geostationary and highly elliptical objects as a part of the ISON project is considered. A brief description of the facilities and their observation statistics are given. Prospects for the further development of sites for monitoring near-Earth objects in Mexico are presented, including data of astronomical observing conditions from field stations.
