Traditionally, the Satellite
Situation Center (SSC)
4D Orbit Viewer has
been started by a user visiting the
application's web page and selecting the "launch" application
button. This resulted in the application starting and prompting
the user to enter time-range and satellite information. The
services described below, allow any Web application to conveniently
link to the SSC 4D Orbit Viewer in such a way that the viewer can be
launched from any web page with initial time-range and satellite
information. This allows any Web application to offer an
interactive
4D display of the trajectories of satellites known to SSC.
The available Web Services are:
- Launch the 4D Orbit Viewer (assuming Java is already installed)
Examples
The following sites utilize these services to display orbit information:

Developers who do not want the 4D Orbit Viewer but only want access to the orbital data used by the viewer should consider linking to the SSC HTML interface or using the SSC Web Services directly.
