The `iss` platform uses the [Open Notify API](http://open-notify.org/Open-Notify-API/ISS-Location-Now/) to let you know if the station is above your home location. This means that ISS is 10° above the horizon of your home.
|
|
|
|
You can check in the attributes of the sensor to see the timestamp for the next rise of the station, its current coordinates, and the number of people in space.
|
|
|
|
To add ISS binary sensor to your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
binary_sensor:
|
|
- platform: iss
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **show_on_map** (*Optional*): Option to show the position of the ISS on the map. Defaults to `False`.
