README.md

NOAA Automated capture using Raspberry PI

Most of the code and setup stolen from: Instructables

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
  • Wiki is updated!

Manual work

  • sudo apt-get install imagemagick nginx predict libusb-1.0 cmake
  • Install rtlsdr

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.
  • Code was a bit updated on how it handles the UTC vs timezone times.
