Satellite Tracker

This project delivers real-time tracking and visualization of the Earth observation satellite AEROS-MH1, developed as part of a broader consortium effort.

I built the backend system that computes the satellite's orbital position. The pipeline starts with orbital data from a Two-Line Element (TLE) set sourced from CelesTrak. Using the SGP4 propagation algorithm, it computes the satellite's position over time and transforms the resulting state vectors into the WGS-84 coordinate reference system for accurate mapping on Earth.

The result is a reliable, near real-time visualization of the satellite's trajectory, making it easy to monitor its current position and understand its observational coverage.
