\section{SatNOGS Optical HOWTO}
|
|
SatNOGS Optical is the nascent distributed network of optical
|
|
ground stations.
|
|
|
|
This chapter gives a top level review what is needed in terms of hardware and
|
|
software to build an operating optical ground station.

See figure \ref{fig:snopo}, page \pageref{fig:snopo}, described below.
|
|
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item Hardware --- Hardware, such as cameras and computers, is to be selected and set up.
|
|
\item Software --- The best currently available software is to be downloaded, installed, and configured.
|
|
\item Acquire --- Data samples, typically in the form of \gls{FITS} file photographs, need to be acquired by running a camera outside at night taking pictures of the sky.
|
|
\item \Gls{plate-solver} --- Acquired data samples need to be processed by a \gls{plate-solver}. See \ref{sec:plate-solver}, page \pageref{sec:plate-solver}.
|
|
\item Detect \glspl{satellite} --- Using \glspl{TLE} and the ``solved'' plates, detect \glspl{satellite}. See \ref{sec:satellite-detection}, page \pageref{sec:satellite-detection}.
|
|
\item Identify \glspl{satellite} --- With \glspl{satellite} detected in the previous step, identify what they are. See \ref{sec:overview-identify}, page \pageref{sec:overview-identify}.
