Hi there,
I am trying to illustrate GPS satellite orbit paths over North-West Canada in ArcGIS.
I'm reproduce this type of plot - same sort of thing you can see in observation planning software (thanks Trimble for the image below).
Any suggestions on a data source for this data, and in a format friendly to ArcGIS?
I see that there's something called AGI STK that might help here, but any feedback would be appreciated.
Regards,
Jason
I realize I am not directly responding to your query but have you looked at these approaches:

Check out "Heavens Above":

Every satellite since the beginning of time to the present. Not sure of what format they can output in, but it should sure get you started.
