Julien Leblond, intern at CS Group in 2024 within the Orekit team, has a message for the community:

"Hello Orekit community,

The Orekit team would like to present you OreCzml. This library has been designed for the past six months with a unique goal, helping Orekit's users visualize in 3D outputs of Orekit.
In fact, this library uses CesiumJS™, which is a JavaScript library for 3D visualization.
The official release V1.0 is now available here. This project is a prototype, and is going to evolve with futher versions.

OreCzml will allow you to display for example:

• satellite orbits
• window visibility for satellite from ground stations
• covariances ellipsoid evolution
• visualisation inter-satellite
• orbital maneuvers
• ground tracks
• field of views
• constellations

And even more!

This library has been designed to make Orekit's data more accessible and visually intuitive. We invite you to explore OreCzml and share your feedback. You can also contribute to its development or raise issues.

Hoping you will find this tool useful and interesting!

Cheers, Zudo (Julien Leblond)

PS: To go further, a repository of a local interface for CesiumJS is available."
