International Space Station Tracker

High-Level Project Summary

Our Project is to Track the Space Station in 3D. We "TEAM HUSMUKH" developed an web app to track the current position ,latitude, longitude, altitude of the International Space Station. Our Web can monitor the movement of the International Space Station and can sync it's position with the earth's latitude and longitude and can be visualize in 3d. We used open 3d model of The Station available in the Nasa's Website and used the "WHERE's the ISS" data API for data fetching. Our app can easily demonstrate the revolution of the ISS around the earth. It Offers free look system as well as ISS auto revolving system demonstration

Detailed Project Description

Project is to Track the Space Station in 3D. We "TEAM HUSMUKH" developed an web app to track the current position ,latitude, longitude, altitude of the International Space Station. Our Web can monitor the movement of the International Space Station and can sync it's position with the earth's latitude and longitude and can be visualize in 3d. We used open 3d model of The Station available in the Nasa's Website and used the "WHERE's the ISS" data API for data fetching. Our app can easily demonstrate the revolution of the ISS around the earth. 


we used a Javascript library called three.js for rendering the 3d models in the webapp. It first fetches the data from an API and we use the data from the API to get the coordinates of the International Space Station. We process the data and sync the coordinates of the ISS with the respective coordinates of the earth and the ISS is placed just above the point of the coordinates. It offers free look system as well as ISS auto revolving system demonstration


Through this project we can easily visualize the revolution of the ISS around the earth that creates an easy way for studying about it.

Hackathon Journey

This hackathon was a great experience. We learned to handle handle big data , handling 3d modules and many more.

It was a fun event and were very excited to participate in the further events too. At first things didn't go as per the plan but the dedication hard work and constant effort of the team lead us for this result. We would like to thank the organizing committee for this wonderful event.
