Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure include a method of prioritizing generation of predicted ephemeris data. The method includes receiving, by a device through a data network, first ephemeris seed data of a subset of a plurality of satellites, identifying a first satellite and a second satellite of the plurality of satellites, the first satellite being potentially detectable by the device at an estimated position at a given time, and the second satellite being potentially undetectable by the device at the estimated position at the given time, and prioritizing generation of first predicted ephemeris data that represent a first orbit of the first satellite before generation of second predicted ephemeris data that represent a second orbit of the second satellite. The generation of the first predicted ephemeris is based on the first ephemeris seed data.
