GEO Elevation Visibility Demo

GEO Satellite Visibility and Elevation Angle demo. Compare fixed ground stations at different latitudes. The GEO satellite is above the equator; higher-latitude stations see it lower in the sky.

Ground station latitude45.0°

Maximum latitude: ±81.3°
Approx. elevation angle:
Theoretical Earth coverage: 42.4%

Concept: At about ±81.3°, the line of sight is tangent to Earth and the elevation angle is 0°.
