Balloon payload telemetry over APRS

Project description

PacketRaven

PacketRaven is a front-end data aggregator / dashboard, designed to track the progress of high-altitude balloon payload flights via location telemetry.

pip install packetraven

Usage:

to start the client, run the following:

packetraven <serial_port> [log_file] [output_file]

or start the graphical interface:

packetraven_gui

Python API:

to retrieve packets directly from https://aprs.fi:

from packetraven import BALLOON_CALLSIGNS, APRS_fi

api_key = '' # enter your APRS.fi API key here - you can get a free API key from https://aprs.fi/page/api

aprs_fi = APRS_fi(BALLOON_CALLSIGNS, api_key)
aprs_fi_packets = aprs_fi.packets

print(aprs_fi_packets)

or parse packets from a radio sending parsed APRS over a USB connection:

from packetraven import PacketRadio

serial_port = None # leave None to let PacketRaven guess the port name  

radio = PacketRadio(serial_port)
radio_packets = radio.packets

print(radio_packets)

Features:

current:

parse APRS packets from USB radio
retrieve packets from https://aprs.fi
output packets to file
plot altitude

in development:

flight track plotting
live track prediction
Iridium telemetry and commands
live chase navigation
