SmartNode
Visual simulation platform for space-based data backhaul scenarios
smartNode is a visual simulation platform for space-based intelligent relay and satellite data-return scenarios. It models the relationship between satellites, ground stations, relay links, and content-driven task scheduling. The project includes a Python backend and a browser-based frontend, making it suitable for local simulation, teaching, and secondary development. Users can view a three-dimensional space situation, submit data return tasks, and monitor resource states in real time. The system exposes APIs for health checks, simulation data, resource status, utilization metrics, and configuration updates. smartNode is best suited for aerospace students, communications learners, instructors, and developers exploring space-based network simulation.
