Realtime Satellite Orbit Visualizer
View and propagate the full CelesTrak satellite catalog in realtime.
The following packages have to be installed prior to compilation: gcc pkg-config gtk+-3.0 libcurl epoxy meson
. On Debian-based systems, run the following command to install them:
apt-get install gcc pkg-config libgtk-3-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libepoxy-dev meson
To compile:
meson setup builddir
meson compile -C builddir
To run the program:
cd builddir
./orbvis
Windows binaries are provided with github releases. These releases provide the executable bin/orbvis.exe
, which cannot be moved from the directory structure, but a shortcut can be created and used.
If you wish to compile for windows yourself, use MSYS2. First verify that all required packages are installed by calling util/wininit.sh
, then compile with util/winbuild.sh
. This creates the release
directory containing windows binaries and all other required files.
