Byte Ocean - BlueOrbit

Real-time Iridium satellite positions. 100% offline, on-device calculation of orbits and elevation to precisely determine your satellite connection windows.

BlueOrbit: Stop Guessing. Start Connecting.

Operating satellite hardware in remote locations shouldn't rely on luck. When you are off the grid—whether navigating an offshore passage or working in challenging terrestrial environments—every percentage of battery life and every successful data transmission counts.

BlueOrbit is the ultimate tactical planning tool for your Iridium satellite communications. Instead of powering on your device and hoping for a signal, BlueOrbit tells you exactly when and where the next satellite will appear in your sky, ensuring you establish a solid link on your first attempt.

Why BlueOrbit is a Game-Changer:

Eliminate Connection Failures: View the real-time position and trajectory of the entire Iridium constellation. Know the exact minute your connection window opens and closes.

Maximize Critical Battery Life: Stop wasting power on endless signal searches. BlueOrbit allows you to keep your hardware powered down until a satellite is confirmed to be in an optimal line-of-sight.

Beat the Terrain: A satellite overhead is useless if it's blocked by a mountain ridge or your vessel's superstructure. Our precise elevation calculator anticipates blockages so you can reposition your antenna before you try to connect.

True Offline Independence: Designed for the most remote environments on Earth. Perform a single, ultra-low-bandwidth sync to update the orbital data, and BlueOrbit will run 100% autonomously for days—no internet required.

Built for professionals, expedition leaders, and serious mariners who demand reliability, BlueOrbit ensures your communication hardware works when you need it most. Get the exact data you need to secure your uplink.
