▾	gpredict	2.3-33-gca42d22-1	Satellite tracking program
Gpredict: Satellite tracking program Gpredict is a real time satellite tracking and orbit prediction program for the Linux desktop. It uses the SGP4/SDP4 propagation algorithms together with NORAD two-line element sets (TLE). Some core features of Gpredict include: Tracking of a large number of satellites only limited by the physical memory and processing power of the computer Display the tracking data in lists, maps, polar plots and any combination of these Have many modules open at the same either in a notebook or in their own windows. The modules can also run in full-screen mode You can use many ground stations Predict upcoming passes Gpredict can run in real-time, simulated real-time (fast forward and backward), and manual time control Detailed information both the real time and non-real time modes Doppler tuning of radios via Hamlib rigctld Antenna rotator control via Hamlib rotctld Maintainer Debian Hamradio Maintainers Christoph Berg Versions 1.1-7 (squeeze) 1.3-2 (wheezy) 1.3-2 (jessie) 1.3-3 (stretch) 2.3-33-gca42d22-1 (buster) 2.3-33-gca42d22-1 (bullseye) 2.3-33-gca42d22-1 (sid) Tags ✏ field astronomy hardware hamradio interface x11 role program scope application suite gnome uitoolkit gtk use learning, monitor x11 application Popularity 66 regular users 56 recent 751 total installations (of 202451 submissions) Debian Maintainer page Bugs Git Upstream Home page Bugs Close
▾	predict	2.2.3-3	Satellite Tracking Program with Optional Voice Output
Predict: 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. The upstream predict sources include a front-end called 'map', which is called predict-map in the Debian package. The 'ntp' package is suggested because accurate satellite tracking depends on precise knowledge of ground station time and location. Maintainer A.

▾	predict-gsat	2.2.3-4	Graphical Satellite Tracking Client Program
Predict-gsat: Graphical Satellite Tracking Client Program The gsat program is a graphical client for the 'predict' satellite tracking program running in server mode, built using gtk. Since this program can be run on a different machine than predict, there is no dependency specified... but you need access to a copy of 'predict' installed somewhere on the network for this programs to be useful!
