File Information
Description

1 INTRODUCTION
 
The purpose of this open-source software is to provide Matlab users with the means to track the ISS in real-time, and to provide them with:
 
• Real-time Keplerian orbital parameters,
• Real-time 3D visualisation of the location of the ISS,
• Ground trace and real-time 2D location of the ISS,
• Real-time telescope pointing coordinates from a given user location.
 
This is done by propagating the orbit bulletin provided by Nasa. The ISS 24h ephemeris data ‎[R5] is regularly updated, and provides expected positions and planned manoeuvres for two weeks.
 
The low-level libraries Commons-Math and Orekit are used directly within Matlab to propagate the orbit bulletin and a Matlab Guide figure updated every 10 ms displays the real-time data.
