Antarctic Iceberg Tracker\n\nA Python tool for tracking large icebergs in Antarctic waters using satellite data from NASA's Scatterometer Climate Record Pathfinder (SCP).\n\n## Features\n\n- **Real-time Data**: Scrapes latest iceberg positions from NASA SCP website\n- **Location Tracking**: Precise latitude/longitude coordinates with DMS conversion\n- **Interactive Map**: Generate beautiful web-based visualizations with movement animations\n- **GitHub Pages Deployment**: Automatically deploy to a live website\n- **Data Analysis**: Summary statistics and iceberg movement tracking\n- **JSON Export**: Save data in structured format for further analysis\n- **Simple CLI**: Easy-to-use command-line interface\n\n## Live Demo\n\n🌐 **View the live Antarctic Iceberg Tracker**: [https://joel-hanson.github.io/Iceberg-locations/](https://joel-hanson.github.io/Iceberg-locations/)\n\nThe live site is automatically updated daily with the latest iceberg data and includes interactive features.\n\n## Quick Start\n\n### Installation\n\n```bash\n# Clone the repository\ngit clone https://github.com/Joel-hanson/Iceberg-locations.git\ncd Iceberg-locations\n\n# Install dependencies\npip install -r requirement.txt\n```\n\n### Usage\n\n```bash\n# Collect latest iceberg data\npython main.py scrape\n\n# Show data summary\npython main.py info\n\n# Generate interactive map\npython main.py map\n\n# View iceberg movement animations\npython main.py animations\n```\n\n## Commands\n\n### `scrape` - Collect Data\n\nFetches the latest iceberg position data from NASA SCP website and saves it to `iceberg_location.json`.\n\n```bash\npython main.py scrape\n```\n\n### `info` - Data Summary\n\nDisplays statistics about the collected iceberg data including number of icebergs, observation dates, and data coverage.\n\n```bash\npython main.py info\n```\n\n**Example output:**\n\n```\nAntarctic Iceberg Data Summary:\n   • 37 observation dates\n   • 53 current icebergs\n   • 97 unique icebergs tracked\n   • 1,832 total records\n   • Latest data: 11/11/21\n```\n\n### `map` - Interactive Visualization\n\nGenerates an interactive HTML map showing iceberg positions with clickable markers.\n\n```bash\npython main.py map\n```\n\nOpens `output/iceberg_map.html` in your browser with:\n\n- Interactive Antarctica-focused map\n- Clickable iceberg markers with details\n- **Movement animation links** in each popup\n- Real-time statistics display\n\n### `animations` - Movement Animations\n\nShows URLs to animated GIF files demonstrating historical iceberg movement patterns.\n\n```bash\npython main.py animations\n```\n\n**Example output:**\n\n```\nIceberg Movement Animations:\nData from: 07/02/25\nNote: Animations show historical movement patterns from NASA SCP\n\n  A23A     | N/A, 39 7'W          | https://ftp.scp.byu.edu/data/misc/iceberg_animations/a23a_movie.gif\n  C18B     | N/A, 78 17'E         | https://ftp.scp.byu.edu/data/misc/iceberg_animations/c18b_movie.gif\n```\n\nCopy the URLs to view GIF animations showing iceberg drift patterns over time.\n\n## Project
