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.
