• Satellite constellation diagram

Satellites currently in view are shown at their respective positions on a sky view diagram. The sky view is

always in a north-up orientation, with the outer circle representing the horizon, the inner circle representing
45° above the horizon, and the center point showing the position directly overhead.

Each satellite is represented by an oval containing the Pseudo-random noise (PRN) number (i.e., satellite

identification number). Satellites whose signals are currently being used are represented by solid ovals.
