chenaza/flightairmap

Open source project displaying aircrafts on 2D/3D map. Browse through the data based on a particular aircraft, airline or airport to search through the database or see extensive statistics. Can use ADS-B in SBS1 format (dump1090, Radarcape,...) or VRS, some VA (VATSIM, IVAO whazzup.txt, phpvms,...), or/and ACARS (acarsdec, acarsdeco2) as datasource.

FlightAirMap

FlightAirMap is a fork of Barrie Spotter https://github.com/barriespotter/Web_App with map, airspaces, METAR, PDO and ADS-B support. Browse through the data based on a particular aircraft, airline or airport to search through the database. See extensive statistics such as most common aircraft type, airline, departure & arrival airport and busiest time of the day, or just explore flights.

Flights are displayed on a 2D map that can be from : OpenStreetMap, Mapbox, MapQuest, Yandex, Bing, Google,... Or a 3D map using OpenStreetMap or Bing.

It can be used with Dump1090 or any SBS source. Can also be used with virtual airlines sources like FlightGear, whazzup.txt from IVAO, VATSIM, phpvms, Virtual Airlines Manager,...

It also support glidernet APRS source.

Satellites can be displayed on 3D map. On december, you can track Santa's flight.
