More about Find_Orb (what it does, how to use it, pre-built Windows executables) at
https://www.projectpluto.com/find_orb.htm
This project includes code for building Linux, Windows, and BSD
(and possibly OS/X) versions of the interactive Find_Orb orbit
determination software, the non-interactive fo software, and
the fo_serve.cgi program that underlies the
on-line Find_Orb service. Be
warned, though, that (at least thus far) only the Linux and
BSD versions (OS/X is possible, but untested) can be built with
what's currently posted.
This project depends on three of my other projects :
jpl_eph(code to read JPL ephemerides)sat_code(code for Earth-orbiting satellite ephemerides)lunar(basic astronomical ephemeris/time functions)
I'd suggest getting all three of these, either by cloning them or
just downloading the ZIPballs, and running make and sudo make install for each. That will copy the relevant include files and
libraries to /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib. This appears
to work for Linux and BSD, and may work with OS/X as well (I don't
have Apple products to try it out). For BSD (and possibly OS/X),
use gmake instead of make.
Obviously, I'll have to change the procedure for Windows.
Once you have those three projects built and installed, get this
project and run make, and Find_Orb should be built, as well as the
aforementioned fo and fo_serve.cgi. Note that at present, there
is no make install for Find_Orb yet; that's on my to-do list.
