info about SGP4 and traking gps satellites
hi,
(excuse me for my bad english, i'm italian :-) ) i'm looking for SGP4 information, also for SDP4 .. who can explain me what are SGP4 and SDP4 (used for tracking satellite?) i'm using a program "predict" for satellite trak on linux, that use SGP4 & SDP4, .. i'd like to trak GPS navstar satellite, so i've changed the database to do this, but is correct the use of SGP4 and SDP4 for this kind of satellites ( distance 20.000 km) or there are other kind of SGP that i've to use?

i'd like to trak GPS navstar satellite.... Anyone know a satellite tracking freeware software to use on linux? link me On this page there's a freeware version of Highfly for Linux, and it should be appropriate for tracking GPS, Glonass, geostationary, drifting geosynchs, and highly eccentric orbits -- any with mean motion less than 8: http://users2.ev1.net/~mmccants/programs/index.html It only gives text output, but for slow-moving satellites that should be good if you're good at using RA and Dec for aiming your telescope. Here's another page that lists quite a few prediction programs: http://www.satobs.org/orbsoft.html Clear, dark nights -- Ed Cannon - - Austin, Texas, USA |
