How satellite maps of the world are created:

The satellite, passing over the planet, scans the earth's surface and, using software maps are drawn up. More recently, a few years ago, satellite maps showed the surface of the planet from a height of several kilometers. Now technologies make it possible to make satellite maps from a height of several meters, and in the near future technologies will make it possible to create satellite maps with detail up to 30 centimeters.

First of all, people look for their country, their hometown, the street and the house in which they live.

The capabilities of satellites today are simply fantastic. It turns out there is one more thing no less interesting activity– satellite fishing!
If you have:
1) Satellite dish
2) Computer DVB tuner (DVB-PCI tuner, DVB card)
Then you can go fishing. But what can we catch and what is the point?

And the meaning is this - when sending a request to issue (download) a file, you send a request to a special server, and the answer comes via satellite to the receiving dish. One person sends a request, but anyone can accept it, because the satellite does not know where a specific user is and transmits information to everyone who falls within its coverage area. In order to receive the file, you need special card for receiving signal from. The card has a unique number by which the satellite identifies the recipient, allowing him to receive discrete data. In turn, the “fisherman” catches the entire stream, all the user information from some provider. To catch something worthwhile from this stream, you need special grabber programs that have filters where you can specify file extensions, size, etc. The only thing is that grabbers identify a file not by extension, but by the file signature, so you will additionally need to download codes with filters. You will also need renaming programs to sort files into directories, remove unnecessary ones and clones.
Who knows, maybe you will be able to catch something “big” or stumble upon information from the “Top secret” section, which will bring a little romance and adventurous notes into your life.
