ISS Tracker

ISS Tracker is a web app for visualizing and tracking the International Space Station (ISS) in 3D. It was built for the NASA Space Apps Challenge 2022.

We built this as a fork of WorldWindEarth/worldwind-web-app, itself built upon the NASA WorldWind virtual globe API.

The ISS model was obtained from NASA 3D Resources and converted to a WorldWind-compatible format.

Two-line element (TLE) data for the ISS is fetched from https://tle.ivanstanojevic.me/ and plugged in to tle.js, which uses satellite.js to propagate the orbit and calculate the realtime location of the ISS.
