Hi @ij0n , your request has already quite an age, but since I'm currently fiddeling and playing around with some NASA api I think I can also have a look at this. Scraping an url is not the best the best way of retrieving data, especially if there is an api available that delivers the current position of the ISS with latitude and longitude data: http://api.open-notify.org/iss-now.json . So I will try to build something that meets your wish by using that api.
