The Hackerspace Global Grid is aiming at building and establishing a distributed sensor and communication network[1]. It was started in 2011 by Armin Bauer, Andreas Horning and a hacker named hadez after a call for participation in the Hackers in Space programme at the Chaos Communication Camp 2011 to create a global community driven communication network[2].
The long term goal is to establish a system for tracking and communicating with amateur satellites in near earth orbit, but the system is kept open for a variety of sensors, i.e. earthquake detection, radiation or weather data. Currently, the project is in a state where it is possible to receive data from commercial aeroplanes via ADS-B[3].
