Show satellite footprints (0° elevation)

Show comms links (LoS to ground units)

Satellites (paste TLE)

Name Two-Line Element Set (2 lines)

Tip: Paste any real TLE. Orbit, ground track, live position & footprint are auto-drawn.

Ground Units (PLA / Sites)

Load GeoJSON (Points/Polygons)

Points become “ground units”; polygons (e.g., South China Sea features) are drawn as areas.

Notes

• Footprint radius uses a 0° elevation mask (horizon).
• “Comms links” appear when a ground unit is inside the sat footprint (line-of-sight approximation).
• You can load any additional areas (e.g., SCS features) as GeoJSON polygons.
