Hello,
Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package gpredict, which is
part of the hamradio section, and maintained by Hamish Moffatt
<hamish at debian.org>.
This package contains : Satellite tracking program for GNOME.
Gnome Predict is a real time satellite tracking program for Gnome, based on
the tracking engine of John Magliacane's excellent satellite tracker Predict.
Gnome Predict aims to include the following features (not all are
implemented yet):
* Be able to track a large number of satellites (only limited by
the physical memory of the computer)
* Track for several groundstations, not just one.
* Show the satellite data using various visualization modules (lists,
maps, sky, etc.)
* Predict upcomming passes for the satellites.
* Automatically update element sets when newer sets are available
* Control your receiver/transmitter and antenna rotor using the hamlib
libraries (http://sourceforge.net/projects/hamlib)
* Advanced schedule manager for unattended monitoring of satellites.
* Any desirable feature that is missing from other programs (feel
free to submit your ideas)
