gpredict

Satellite tracking and orbit prediction application

Gpredict is a real-time satellite tracking and orbit prediction application. It can track a large number of satellites and display their position and other data in lists, tables, maps, and polar plots (radar view). Gpredict can also predict the time of future passes for a satellite, and provide you with detailed information about each pass.

Some core features of Gpredict include:

Tracking of a large number of satellites only limited by the physical memory and processing power of the computer
Display the tracking data in lists, maps, polar plots and any combination of these
Have many modules open at the same either in a notebook or in their own windows. The modules can also run in full-screen mode
You can use many ground stations
Predict upcoming passes
Gpredict can run in real-time, simulated real-time (fast forward and backward), and manual time control
Detailed information both the real time and non-real time modes
Doppler tuning of radios via Hamlib rigctld
Antenna rotator control via Hamlib rotctld
