Hello

I'm looking for some http stream with gps data (gga, rmc) with current
position of ISS. Do You know some?
I'll be happy even if this data is on WWW or on other pupular file type
that I can download to my PC.

Thanks !

Well I can't mined it from my C program. I need informations in pure text,
not in Java application or in image.

Here are to-day's TLE's (two-line elements) for the ISS.
perhaps you can do something with them.
with the proper tracking program you can have an output that meets your
requirments.
Myself, I use a DOS based tracking program written by the late
Dave Ransom, there are others out there, written for other platforms
that can output whatever format you want.

Have an other question:

All these components are docked, why are these lines all differend??
A.F.A.I.K. all of this are at the same place??

Well if they're update more then once in mintute then send me link to them
(http://celestrak.com/NORAD/elements/stations.txt - ?).
I hope I can grab from them lat an lon.

The epochs (time tags) of each element set are different. All of the
above represent "snapshots" of the same orbit, taken at different times.
Small perturbations in the orbit are enough to account for the
differences. If you propagate all the above elements to the same epoch,
using the exact same algorithm USSPACECOM uses, you should get the same
result.

Ah, okay.
If I read it correctly; the elements were generated at different times
during the same orbit?
Also the inclination of the Progress-M 60 is slightly different, the
element probably generated just before or after docking I guess...

Thanks for the 'lesson'.

What you see is what you get, and after 9/11 we are extremely lucky to
get these. Homeland security wanted and tried to shut down access to ALL
sat TLE's

There is a gentleman in Canada that generates TLEs as well, but I doubt
that you would get him to generate continous sets.

Really ,,
I am not sure what you are asking for, once you get a set of current
TLE's you can plug them into a existing program or write your own
program to output what you desire, I know one guy that has written a
good Windows program, but myself I prefer the DOS program, since it runs
much faster in DOS on my laptop that we take to the field to view
sat passes. I use Windoze, but .....not a fan..
