Source - Unreleased

Any current unreleased code is now stored on the official SaVi beta directory.

This is where work-in-progress on SaVi was kept as it was checked into the SaVi SourceForge repository. Browse code changes in the SVN repository or the legacy SaVi CVS tree. Occasional development diary notes were made in my SaVi blogstream.

Feel free to follow the SaVi development mailing list. Latest development code is available from the Sourceforge code repository.

The SaVi 1.6.0 release (30 April 2023) integrates with v1.2 of the satellite plot scripts for better presentation of SaVi coverage maps, adds a reworked hierarchical menu structure with submenus, adds simulations of Audacy, Karousel, Project Kuiper, Laser Light/HALO, RADARSAT, Starlink, Telesat, Theia and Viasat LEO constellations, adds simulations of Singh's geosynchronous 4-satellite constellations as described in Nature Communications, increases maximum number of coverage colors to 29 for megaconstellations with a direct popup menu, adds menu options for coverage map size, adds -small-map and -all-maps options, associates fisheye, sunlight and geostationary satellite behaviour with simulation constants, and suppports wider downloading of TLEs using lynx.

Building SaVi and Geomview under Microsoft Windows and under Mac OS X are discussed. Further discussion of building Geomview can be found in the Geomview users and Geomview developers mailing list archives. You may prefer to begin with a SaVi release. Other unreleased SaVi code includes intersatellite link drawing.
