# STRF
**strf** is the satellite tracking toolkit for radio observations (RF). The software is designed to allow tracking of satellites from radio observations, using Doppler curves to identify satellites and/or determine their orbits.
This repo is a downstream port of STRF from proprietary pgplot
to libre giza.
# Setup
Thus.
```
sudo apt install giza-dev git make gcc gfortran libpng-dev \
libx11-dev libgsl-dev libfftw3-dev dos2unix unzip
git clone https://spacecruft.org/spacecruft/strf
cd strf/
make
sudo make install
```
# Use
Example.
With a `./tmp/` directory with filenames like this:
`2023-01-20_000099.bin`
Run:
```
./rfplot -p ./tmp/2023-01-20
```
