## Introduction

The AeroSentinel Web-Based Flight Viewer is designed to provide an interactive and comprehensive interface for visualizing rocket flight data. The application includes a live 3D model viewer, telemetry data visualization, and trajectory mapping through Google Earth. This tool aims to enhance the user experience by enabling real-time flight monitoring and analysis for rocketry enthusiasts and engineers.



## Getting Started



### Prerequisites

Before getting started, make sure you have the following installed:



- A modern web browser (e.g., Google Chrome, Firefox, Microsoft Edge)

- Basic knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript



### Installation

1. Clone this repository to your local machine.

2. Navigate into the project directory

3. Open the index.html file in your preferred browser (Live Server extension on VSCode is a simple way to do that)



## Features

- **3D Rocket Model Viewer**: Displays a real-time 3D model of the rocket, allowing users to visualize its orientation and status during the flight.

- **Google Earth Trajectory Mapping**: Integrates with Google Earth to display the rocket's trajectory in real time.

- **Real-Time Telemetry Data**: Shows essential flight data such as altitude, velocity, acceleration, and orientation.

- **Data Upload and Analysis**: Allows users to upload flight data files and visualize them through interactive graphs and tables.

- **Playback Controls**: Provides controls to play, pause, and rewind the flight data playback.



## Software Architecture



The AeroSentinel Flight Viewer is structured with a modular and maintainable front-end architecture. It consists of the following components:



- **3D Model Viewer**: Built using the Three.js library to render and animate the rocket model.

- **Trajectory Viewer**: Uses the Google Earth Web API to display the rocket’s flight path.

- **Data Management**: Handles the parsing and processing of telemetry data files.

- **User Interface**: Built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to provide a responsive and interactive user experience.



## Key Technologies

- **Three.js**: For rendering 3D models and animations.

- **jQuery**: For simplified DOM manipulation and event handling.

- **Google Earth API**: For real-time trajectory visualization.
