MAD SAT

Tracking heavy LEO satellites and the magnetic anomalies they create.

The app runs locally on a Rasberry Pi 5.

Satellite TLE data are provided by CelesTrak

Magnetometer data are provided by INTERMAGNET

Propabilities of magnetic anomalies are calculated using Richard Cordaro's method from The Magnetic Precursor Earthquake Warning Method
