Designing a Streaming Pipeline for the Public Dissemination of Astronomy Data

Sammanfattning: This thesis presents how a solution to fetch and stream a video feed from the astrovisualization software OpenSpace to a web page can be designed. The streaming protocol that was used was WebRTC. Three different methods for fetching data and creating a video feed were investigated: WebRTC, Spout, and GStreamer. Through user tests, the GStreamer method was determined to be the best option for the streaming solution.
