Simulation of visual instrumental observations of the Earth from the International Space Station

Resumo

This paper discusses the features of training simulation for solving problems of visual and instrumental observation and observation of the Earth from the Russian Segment of the International Space Station (ISS). Approaches satisfying the requirement of real-time rendering of the digital visual Earth model with a resolution of up to 15 m/texel with viewing angles of 2 to 110° in a simulation of ISS flight are described. A solution is presented which allows simulating camera observations using a positioning system. The characteristics of the developed software and hardware are given.
