# NOAA Automated capture using Raspberry PI
Most of the code and setup stolen from: [Instructables](https://www.instructables.com/id/Raspberry-Pi-NOAA-Weather-Satellite-Receiver/)

### New Features!
  - Nginx webserver to show images.
  - Timestamp and satellite name over every image.
  - WXToIMG configured to create several images (HVC,HVCT,MCIR, etc).
  - Pictures are posted to Twitter. See more at [argentinasat twitter account](https://twitter.com/argentinasat).
  - [Wiki](https://github.com/reynico/raspberry-noaa/wiki) is updated!

### Manual work
  - See [Wiki's install and config page](https://github.com/reynico/raspberry-noaa/wiki/Initial-installation-and-configuration) for information

### Important notes
  - I tried to run this on a Raspberry PI Zero Wifi, no luck. Seems like it's too much load for the CPU. Running on a Raspberry PI 2+ is ok. See [Wiki's hardware notes page](https://github.com/reynico/raspberry-noaa/wiki/Hardware-notes).
  - Code was a bit updated on how it handles the UTC vs timezone times.

### To do
  - [Calculate sun elevation for each satellite pass to decide image enhancement](https://github.com/reynico/raspberry-noaa/commit/e21abc616b289a768129006863e48f0c815814b9) done.
