David, I love the idea. Will you be offering the ability to create tle files for different programs? Norm n3ykf On Wed, Jul 3, 2013 at 4:45 PM, David A B Johnson dave@g4dpz.me.uk wrote:
Hi,I
There are many very worthy sources of TLE data and satellite catalogues. However, there is no user-defined source. I.e one where the user can:
Categorise their own satellite types Choose from one of the many aliases for an individual satellite Have satellite channels / modes available for viewing Have individual / mixed schedules (constellations) available ...
If there is any interest in creating such a service to the AMSAT/CubeSat community then I should be interested in discussing it. I should be particularly interested in API proposals from existing source providers.
This will NOT be a commercial undertaking, any income will go to AMSAT worlwide.
I am going to make a similar propsal at the AMSAT-UK Colloquium in two weeks time.
