Abstract
Are you fascinated by space and want to learn how to receive data from
satellites and weather probes? Join us in this TinyGS Station Workshop
where you’ll build and program your ground station and antenna to
receive data from space. This hands-on, beginner-friendly workshop is
perfect for anyone interested in radio, electronics, IOT, antenna
design, and space exploration.
About TinyGS: TinyGS is an open community-run network of Ground
Stations distributed around the world to receive and operate LoRa
satellites, weather probes and other flying objects, using cheap and
versatile modules. With a TinyGS ground station, you can receive data
from a variety of sources, such as CubeSats.
What You’ll Learn: During the workshop, you’ll learn how to build and
program a TinyGS ground station and a quarter-wave ground plane
antenna. No prior experience is required, and we’ll provide all the
necessary materials, tools, and equipment to guide you through the
process.
