require. It applies to the current release of OVERHEAD.

## Live data

### Aircraft positions — adsb.lol
Live ADS-B aircraft positions are provided by **adsb.lol**.
adsb.lol data is made available under the **Open Database License (ODbL) v1.0**.
Contains information from adsb.lol, which is made available under the ODbL.
- Licence: https://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1-0/
- Source: https://adsb.lol

### Geocoding & place names — OpenStreetMap / Nominatim
Location names are resolved using the **Nominatim** service, which is built on
**OpenStreetMap** data.
**© OpenStreetMap contributors.** OpenStreetMap data is available under the
**Open Database License (ODbL) v1.0**; the produced cartography/derived data is
available under the Open Data Commons / CC BY-SA terms as applicable.
- Licence: https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright
- Nominatim usage policy: https://operations.osmfoundation.org/policies/nominatim/

OVERHEAD respects the Nominatim usage policy: requests are coordinate-rounded
client-side (~100 m), edge-cached, sent with an identifying `User-Agent`, and
routed through OVERHEAD's own caching proxy.

### ISS position — wheretheiss.at
Live International Space Station position is provided by **wheretheiss.at**, a free
public API, routed through OVERHEAD's caching proxy (short cache TTL) like the
aircraft and geocoding feeds.

## Astronomical methods

- **Planetary positions** are computed from **mean Keplerian orbital elements**
  (solving Kepler's equation for each planet and for Earth, then taking the
  geocentric difference) — a low-precision method accurate to roughly 1°, suitable
  for a naked-eye ceiling view rather than precise ephemeris work.
- Sidereal time, solar position, lunar phase and rise/set geometry use standard
  published astronomical algorithms (truncated Meeus).
- Named-star and constellation geometry derive from standard public-domain
  bright-star catalogue data.
