You want to add the satellite of your mission to SatNOGS? Cool! Here is a guide how to do this. Please also reach out to us via chat or community so that we can support you.

  • Suggest to add your satellite to satnogs-db by creating an issue in satnogs-ops
  • Once the new satellite was added to satnogs-db by one of the satnogs-ops team, find your satellite in db.satnogs.org and add a transmitter suggestion for each transmitter of your satellite
  • Choose one of the existing flowgraphs in gr-satnogs or provide a new one
  • If you add a new flowgraph, make sure to add support for it in satnogs-client
  • Wait for the next release of satnogs-client-ansible, then let the station owners know that your satellite is supported now and ask them to update their stations.
  • Add a decoder written in Kaitai to satnogs-decoders


We kindly ask you to also provide a station to increase the network (maybe you can spare some time of your existing ground station to SatNOGS).
