predict1. Satellite Tracking Program with Optional Voice Output This is a satellite tracking program. It is probably mostly of interest to users of amateur satellites, but includes support for optionally announcing azimuth and elevation to help in manual antenna pointing, or optical observation of satellites. Several client programs are provided: earthtrack provides the ability to combine predict with xearth for pretty graphics, xearth must be installed to use it. geosat determines the 'look angles' for geostationary satellites based on their longitude, uses predict's data files for the groundstation location gsat graphical front-end for predicut using gtk The upstream predict sources also come with a front-end called 'map', but it is not included in the Debian package both because it requires the non-free xforms library, and because the name is too generic. From Debian 3.0r0 APT |
