waterfall2png

waterfall2png will take a satellite recording, such as from the Libre Space Foundation's SatNOG network, and convert it into a PNG.

This script is just a few lines added to upstream's satnogs-client waterfall.py to make it easier for command line processing.

Use

If you don't already have satnogs-client installed, install Python dependencies to your taste, such as:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3-pip
pip install --user matplotlib numpy

Change these two lines to your input data and output PNG:

# Change this to your input file name
datafile_path='receiving_waterfall_.dat'

# This is the output PNG filename:
figure_path='waterfall.png'

Then run:

./waterfall2png
