High-Level Project Summary
We developed a proposal to display images of the ionosphere to create reference points according to the receiving antennas of research centers and radio amateurs, with the number of radio amateurs, the frequency of each of the points will be obtained, they will become pixels creating a irregular image of the planet according to the number of receivers in the point sought, and it will be parameterized with colors according to the frequencies received, all this will be triangulated according to the meridians of the planet and we will be able to obtain the image of the Earth and of the hydrospheric layer

Detailed Project Description
Create images through the signals received by radio amateurs, these signals denote colors that will be assigned according to the frequency received, the great unknown that this presents is the formation of the image because to be of high quality it must contain up to a maximum of 2 million pixels to achieve a full HD image, for them we have to align and search for all the radio amateurs that are in the parallels of the earth, with this I mean that we are going to take an image line by line of l80 parallels, we have the inconvenience that in the northern and southern hemispheres of the planet, more specifically the polar areas do not have as many radio amateurs as in areas more central to the equator, so the aim is to create an image with an irregular shape. shape but showing different tonalities, the place that each pixel will occupy will be according to the coordinates presented by the radio amateur, all this with the advantage that the signals will be obtained free of charge and anyone can have access to it.
Space Agency Data
Information about satellites and radio frequencies of different receiving antennas.
Internet pages with information on the ionosphere
Hackathon Journey
It was incredible to meet people who are interested in space and who offer different points of view to solve problems that we may not be very aware of, which inspired us to choose the challenge of discovering how we can triangulate the signal of radio amateurs. with the advantage that it will be free and anyone will be able to access the state of the ionosphere
