Keps for post-burn, show altitude as 375Km

The PREDICTED keps are available at the following address, predicted 
for all current maneuvers several days in ahead.

There are several sets for intermediate stages of the reboost.

Most of the information about burns ect, go right over my head, but 
no doubt it will mean something to
those who are a bit more 'rocket science' than I am.

I've posted this link before, but no-one has ever commented on it.

You can also get preliminary keps for shuttle launches here.

The ISS link goes to the ISS page in first link, the shuttle link 
goes to the shuttle predictions when one is in active service.

Above links useful, or just some link I found to useless data?
