Augmented Simulation Environment for Satellite Operations
This project develops a flexible augmented simulation environment that integrates real-world and synthetic satellite data to prototype and evaluate new system concepts. Initially developed as a standalone Python-based satellite simulator using Celestrak TLE data with Skyfield for orbit propagation, it was subsequently integrated with RabbitMQ in a publisher-subscriber framework to relay GeoJSON-formatted messages. Later, a CesiumJS client was added to visualize satellite positions and trajectories. Test cases with various satellites verified robust message relaying and accurate visualization, addressing challenges in scalability and dynamic data exchange between simulation and visualization components.
