More information about the software

PreviSat, a satellite tracking program for observation purposes, is available. It’s very simple to use, and it displays the positions artificial satellites in either real-time mode or manual mode. PreviSat is able to make predictions of their passes, predictions of MetOp and COSMO-SkyMed flares, ISS transits and several other calculations. PreviSat uses a modified version of the SGP4 algorithm (revised in 2006), which uses TLE orbital elements to calculate artificial satellites‘ geocentric position. PreviSat can show satellites in either a world or sky map view. It is capable of calculating all passes for any satellite at any given location around the globe.

PreviSat features include:

  • NORAD SGP4 model (Hoots, Roehrich, 1980; Vallado, 2006)
  • Modes: Manual mode / Real time
  • World map / Satellite map
  • Visualizations of ISS Live and Wall Command Center
  • Topocentric / Equatorial / Terrestrial coordinates (satellites, Sun, Moon)
  • Satellite information, osculating elements
  • Weather for NASA bases or observer location
  • Interface that is intuitive (handling TLE, location selection, display options)
  • Prediction of passes and MetOp and SkyMed flares as well as ISS transits (very fast calculations).
  • Tracking with the Skywatcher mount
  • Satellite data Search (all objects referenced in NORAD since 1957).
  • Available for Windows/Linux/MacOS X platforms
