NORAD began to track Santa Claus in 1955, following an accidental phone call made to the agency by a young boy interested in in speaking with Kris Kringle.

Keeping up with their decades-long tradition, the North American Aerospace Command or NORAD is set to track Santa's journey to deliver presents to children ahead of Christmas 2024

NORAD is the most reliable name in Santa tracking. On the job since 1955, when a young child from Colorado Springs accidentally called in (he meant to call a number advertised by a local department store), they've been following Santa's journey using their radar technology ever since.
