hi all,

Hi Fabio,

i'm really excited about the new selection of esa socis for 2013 and i
just read the proposal

last year i worked on android for orekit and i really like to work on
it this year i see this and it like me a lot :
Create a web application for orbit propagation with operational forecasts

it's possibile to work with orekit again or you prefer new students?

It will depend on all the applications we receive. We would prefer to share
and have new students each year, but we don't forbid past students to apply.

could you explain better what you desire from this project so i could
prepare a right project plan?

What we thought was an application that would run on a web server and would provide a front page were users could select:

 1) a spacecraft orbit
    (either from a server provided list or by specifying all
     orbital elements by themselves)
 2) some general event types (penumbra entry/exit, full eclipse entry/exit,
    nodes crossing, apsides crossings, solar time ...)
 3) some ground station specific events (start/end visibility for some
    selected ground stations locations)
 4) a time span

Then the user would submit this job to the server and will get back generated ephemerides (in inertial or terrestrial frame), ground track plot, and the list of events that occurred together with their occurrence time. These results should be displayed in a result web page and could also be downloaded by the user.

best regards,
Luc


thanks,
Fabio

Dear all,

ESA has announced today the list of open-source projects selected for its
Summer Of Code In Space (SOCIS) 2013. We are very happy that our project has
been selected this year, as it was selected previous years. The complete
list of selected projets is available here:
<http://sophia.estec.esa.int/socis2013/?q=node/13>.

Students who are studying in one of the ESA member state can apply to the
SOCIS projects. Our own list of ideas is here:
<https://www.orekit.org/forge/projects/orekit/wiki/SOCIS>.

If you are interested, look at the SOCIS site to see the conditions for
application. If you want to apply to one of the Orekit proposed subjects (or
if you have another subject you want to propose us), feel free to use this
mailing list to ask, or send a mail directly to me.

best regards,
Luc, on behalf of the Orekit team
