🛰️ N2YO Satellite Pass Scraper

N2YO Satellite Pass Scraper is a fast and lightweight Apify actor that fetches satellite pass predictions from N2YO.com for any location on Earth. Given a list of NORAD IDs and an observer location, it returns upcoming passes with timing, elevation, azimuth, duration, and visibility data — no API key required.

🎯 Features

• 📡 Multi-Satellite Support – Fetch passes for multiple satellites in one run.
• 🌍 Any Location – Specify observer lat/lng/altitude anywhere on Earth.
• 📅 Configurable Forecast – Predict passes 1–10 days ahead.
• 🔭 Elevation Filter – Skip passes below your minimum elevation threshold.
• 👁️ Visibility Flag – Know whether the pass is visible to the naked eye.
• 🧩 Clean JSON Output – Structured results ready for analysis or scheduling.

🚀 How to Use

1. Run the actor on Apify Console or via API.
2. Provide input with the following fields:
   • norad_ids: List of NORAD catalog IDs (e.g. [25544] for ISS)
   • lat: Observer latitude in decimal degrees (e.g. -6.2 for Jakarta)
   • lng: Observer longitude in decimal degrees (e.g. 106.8 for Jakarta)
   • alt: Observer altitude in meters (default: 0)
   • days: Days ahead to predict (1–10, default: 5)
   • min_elevation: Minimum elevation in degrees to include a pass (default: 10)
3. Wait for execution to complete and download results in JSON format.

📌 Example Input

{
"norad_ids":[25544,44713],
"lat":-6.2,
"lng":106.8,
"alt":0,
"days":5,
"min_elevation":10
}

NORAD ID references: ISS = 25544, Hubble = 20580, Starlink examples = 44713, 44714

📦 Example Output

{
"norad_id":25544,
"satellite_name":"ISS (ZARYA)",
"pass_start_utc":"2026-06-10T01:23:00Z",
"pass_start_az":"SW",
"max_elevation_deg":47,
"max_elevation_az":"S",
"pass_end_utc":"2026-06-10T01:29:12Z",
"pass_end_az":"NE",
"duration_sec":372,
"visible":true
}

You can download the dataset in various formats such as JSON, HTML, CSV, or Excel.
