tar1090 VS stardroid

This is cool in concept, but FlightRadar24 has a built-in Augmented Reality feature that works really well.

Also, if I were to build my own local copy, I'd use an RTLSDR to get the ADSB packets direct and base my app on tar1090. https://github.com/wiedehopf/tar1090

I am using node red to readout data from tar1090. https://github.com/wiedehopf/tar1090 Here is the Flow I am using to report if one of our police helicopters is in the air

It’s called tar1090: https://github.com/wiedehopf/tar1090

There's also this, which is how tar1090 works stuff out: https://github.com/wiedehopf/tar1090/blob/master/html/registrations.js

The default setting for tar1090 simply is 4 rings starting at 100nm. Depending on how you are running the software, you can change the default.

Check out [SkyMap](https://github.com/sky-map-team/stardroid)!

Even better, it's open source now! https://github.com/sky-map-team/stardroid

well, also there's security and maintenance issues from too many projects like that... like just keeping shit the same with every new browser... I do think when they do close something, they should still let it calve off into open source land... Such as skymap which is cool: https://github.com/sky-map-team/stardroid

Sky Map? https://github.com/sky-map-team/stardroid

FYI, That 2012 article links to the old code.google.com repo that redirects to the post's link https://github.com/sky-map-team/stardroid.

Download the APK from them directly https://github.com/sky-map-team/stardroid/releases

Sky Map (version 1.10.0 - RC3): Sky Map to explore the skies

Try Sky Map app. It's fun to go on a walk when the sky is clear and identify constellations and planets.

It was originally made by Google, then open sourced in 2012.
