  • SkyScan

    Automatically photograph planes that fly by!

  • Definitely - Let me build a little better dataset. I need to augment a bit because it was false detecting on some of the contrails.

    I built some scripts to also start building a model that can classify the different aircraft models. One of the interesting things with this, is that you get really accurate labels... probably better than what a human could do for images of this size.

  • docker-piaware

    Multi-arch PiAware docker container including support for bladeRF, RTLSDR, SoapySDR. Includes dump1090 & dump978 (amd64, arm/v6, arm/v7, arm64v8)

  • adsb-exchange

    Discontinued ADS-B Exchange Linux Setup Scripts

  • Instead you should just feed ADSBExchange, which doesn't require premium business plans or other nonsense. They also do not censor the data and will show you planes that the owners don't want you to see.

  • adsb_deku

    ✈️ Rust ADS-B decoder + tui radar application

  • Cool ADS-B projects are awesome! If anyone is interested in one written in rust, see https://github.com/rsadsb/adsb_deku

  • tar1090-db

    Database repo for tar1090 using the database maintained by https://github.com/Mictronics/readsb

  • Unfortunately FlightAware Enterprise doesn't get discounted API access.

    The FlightAware API I was using (they have multiple) didn't provide all the data I wanted either. The ADSB Exchange Rapid API was more comprehensive, but came at a cost.

    The aircraft don't broadcast everything over ADSB - so these sites are all pulling from a database somewhere else. It appears ADSB Exchange and some of the pi based UIs use the tar1090-db. This was easy to work with and free - just need to update it periodically due to registration changes.
