Abstract
Interactive cartographic visualization of real-time satellite data and their orbits
Highlights
For this study, various operational and junk satellites are taken to develop a real-time dataset that is represented in an interactive web-based map
The cartographic interactions and user interface design required for the preparation of an interactive map have been explored
The efficiency, effectiveness, and satisfaction of a map are checked with the help of a user study consisting of pre-test and post-test questionnaires
Summary
Various operational and junk satellites are taken to develop a real-time dataset that is represented in an interactive web-based map. The cartographic interactions and user interface design required for the preparation of an interactive map have been explored. An interactive real-time web map has been developed taking the user-centered design workflow (Needs Assessment – Prototyping – Implementation – Deployment - Maintenance), data management, and interactions (Pan and Zoom, Retrieve, Search and Filter, Overlay) (Tolochko, 2016). The two-line element (TLE) data is used to retrieve the position and orbit of the satellite.
