Team 17: Space Domain Awareness Weather Station
Above: A design of a weather station which can assist L3Harris in satellite tracking.
The reliability of satellite systems depends on accurate position tracking via weather and cloud cover monitoring. To assist L3Harris in satellite tracking, our team has created a weather station with the ability to provide cloud mapping with an IR camera and a custom image stitching algorithm. The system also collects data on ambient temperature, pressure, relative humidity, and windspeed.
