SatelliteAnalysis.jl

This package contains several functions to perform analysis related to satellites. Those functions were split from the package SatelliteToolbox.jl.

Installation

This package can be installed using:

julia> using Pkg
julia> Pkg.add("SatelliteAnalysis")

Beta angle: beta_angle.
Eclipse time: eclipse_time_summary and lighting_condition.
Ground facilities: ground_facility_accesses, ground_facility_gaps, ground_facility_visibility_circle, and is_ground_facility_visible.
Ground track: ground_track and ground_track_inclination.
Orbit design: frozen_orbit, design_sun_sync_ground_repeating_orbit, sun_sync_orbit_from_angular_velocity, sun_sync_orbit_inclination, sun_sync_orbit_semi_major_axis, ground_repeating_orbit_adjacent_track_angle, and ground_repeating_orbit_adjacent_track_distance.
Orbital decay: decay_analysis.
Plotting: plot_world_map, plot_ground_track, plot_ground_facility_visibility_circles, plot_decay_analysis, fetch_country_polygons, and a Makie theme.

Some features are provided by package extensions, which are loaded automatically when the corresponding packages are loaded:
