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
