smartNode

SmartNode, described in its README as a Space-Based Intelligent Relay Simulation Platform, is a visualization tool for simulating how satellites, ground stations, and relay links coordinate to transfer data back from space. The README is written in Chinese and describes it as suitable for local simulation, teaching demonstrations, and development experimentation.

The platform runs as a local web application with a Python backend and a plain HTML and JavaScript frontend. You start it by running a Python script, then open a browser to a local address where the simulation interface appears. A one-click batch script is provided for Windows users. The interface offers a three-dimensional view of the simulated space situation, along with panels for monitoring real-time resource status and utilization across satellites, ground stations, and relay resources. You can submit data relay tasks through the interface and adjust the number of simulated ground stations and satellites via API calls.

The backend exposes a set of REST API endpoints for reading simulation state, checking resource status, submitting tasks, and updating the simulated network configuration. No login is required to use these endpoints in local mode. The README notes that if you deploy this on a public-facing server, you should add authentication and access controls at the gateway level yourself, as the platform does not include them.

The project is MIT-licensed and described as appropriate for local use and as a starting point for further development. The README does not describe a production deployment path beyond the local setup instructions.
