David is right in that this is not "that" hard to do. In fact, I do
this all of the time for my clients. I just finished a small effort
where I displayed all the geostationary spacecraft around the earth
using object graphics. The user can zoom, rotate, pan etc.

Go to my website at www.rlkling.com under the freeware tab. Download
the meshObjectDemo.zip file and you will be able to pull out the basic
building blocks that you need.

Of course, if a consultant is in your budget I can knock this out for
you in a day or so.
