SatNOGS: Satellite observing, tracking and communication the open source way!
2022-11-20, 18:00–18:30 (Europe/Athens), Room III

An overview of the SatNOGS project, a worldwide network of satellite ground stations, optimized for modularity, built from readily available and affordable tools and resources.


Satellite deployment rate increases with the participation of old and new entities. In this growing environment SatNOGS provides a scalable and modular solution to track, identify, receive telemetry, monitor and command & control satellites.

SatNOGS global community, dedicated to its free and open source values, develops hardware ground station designs (antennas, rotators, electronics), software for SDR-based communications, satellite scheduling and mission monitoring platforms.

SatNOGS continuously develops and improves its infrastructure to allow observers use this networked ground segment and remotely operate SatNOGS ground stations around the world. It provides also an easy way to store, access and view increasingly received satellites data, by supporting various frequency bands.
