Development of a web-based ground station system for an advanced nano-satellite (VELOX-I) by Goh, Wei Rong.

“…The replacement or migration of software-based applications to Web-based applications is a growing trend as it allows higher cross platform compatibility, ease of data consolidation and system management, efficient system updates and maintenance, and fewer requirements at end users. The objective of this Final Year Project (FYP) is to develop a Web based ground station application that will interface with the receiver at the ground station and present the data collected. …”
