Explore, Track, Predict the ISS in Realtime With Python
Requirements
- Student should know the basics of Python, installing and loading libraries and running a Jupyter notebook
Description
Join me as we explore space, the ISS, Python and some of the basics of data science. I will show how to locate the International Space Station in realtime using Python and a rest API call and how to build a web app to share it with the world. I will also show you:
- How to get the names of astronauts currently on board
- Get the realtime location of the ISS
- Plot the ISS on a world map
-Track and collect the ISS position for historic analysis
- Model ISS location data using both linear and polynomial regressions
- Create a real mobile Web Application on the cloud so you can use your phone to share the location of the ISS to all your friends
- Add a link to the official ISS live feed
So astronauts, young and old, very young and very old, climb on board, and let's have some fun!

Data scientist with over 20-years experience in the tech industry, MAs in Predictive Analytics and International Administration, author of Monetizing Machine Learning and The Little Book of Fundamental Indicators, founder of FastML, reached top 1% on Kaggle and awarded "Competitions Expert" title, taught over 20,000 students on Udemy and VP of Data Science at SpringML.
From consulting in machine learning, healthcare modeling, 6 years on Wall Street in the financial industry, and 4 years at Microsoft, I feel like I’ve seen it all. And this has opened my eyes to the huge gap in educational material on applied data science. Like I say:
"It just ain’t real 'til it reaches your customer’s plate"
I am a startup advisor and available for speaking engagements with companies and schools on topics around building and motivating data science teams, and all things applied to machine learning.
