N2YO.COM REST API V1
The purpose of the API is to provide data for software/web developers to build
satellite tracking or prediction applications.
The REST API v1 is free but it is transaction limited. The current limit is 1000
transactions/hour. If you need more traffic, contact us. Users are requested not
to abuse the system, and not use multiple license keys to get around the hourly
transation limit. Traffic is monitored and logged. When the API is used in
improper ways, user access will be limited or blocked.
For each transaction, the caller must be identified and authorized by a license
key (API key). To generate a unique license key, users are requested first to
register an account at n2yo.com. After login, please visit the profile page and
scroll down to access the button that generates the API key. The new API key
will be accessible in the profile and cannot be changed. If you need a new key,
please contact us and provide an explanation. The keys issued for the SOAP Web
Services API are not valid for REST API.
As a general concept, satellites are identified by their NORAD catalog number
which is an integer ranging from 1 to 43235 and counting. The numbers are
assigned by United States Space Command (USSPACECOM) to all Earth orbiting
satellites in order of identification. If you are looking to find the id of your
favorite satellite, browse categories or search the n2yo.com database until you
arrive at the satellite details page, and extract the NORAD ID for your
application. For instance, Space Station (ISS) is NORAD ID 25544.
For all request, method used is GET.
Base URL: https://api.n2yo.com/rest/v1/satellite/
API key: The API key (apiKey) must be appended at the end of the URL as
&apiKey={your API key}
The following functions are currently available:
* Get TLE
* Get satellite positions
* Get visual passes
* Get radio passes
* What's up?

GET VISUAL PASSES
Get predicted visual passes for any satellite relative to a location on Earth. A
"visual pass" is a pass that should be optically visible on the entire (or
partial) duration of crossing the sky. For that to happen, the satellite must be
above the horizon, illumintaed by Sun (not in Earth shadow), and the sky dark
enough to allow visual satellite observation.

GET RADIO PASSES
The "radio passes" are similar to "visual passes", the only difference being the
requirement for the objects to be optically visible for observers. This function
is useful mainly for predicting satellite passes to be used for radio
communications. The quality of the pass depends essentially on the highest
elevation value during the pass, which is one of the input parameters.

ParameterTypeRequiredComments idintegerYesNORAD id

WHAT'S UP?
The "above" function will return all objects within a given search radius above
observer's location. The radius (θ), expressed in degrees, is measured relative
to the point in the sky directly above an observer (azimuth). This image may
offer a better explanation:
The search radius range is 0 to 90 degrees, nearly 0 meaning to show only
satellites passing exactly above the observer location, while 90 degrees to
return all satellites above the horizon. Since there are many satellites and
debris in the sky at any point in time, the result could be filtered by
satellite category (integer). The following categories are currently available
at n2yo.com:

Please use this function responsably as there is a lot of CPU needed in order to
calculate exact positions for all satellites in the sky. The function will
return altitude, latitude and longitude of satellites footprints to be displayed
on a map, and some minimal information to identify the object.
