yes, you can user mongoimport --type csv

Would it be possible to give a short example how to install a usuable mongodb environment starting from your large aircraft_db.csv file to extent it with your cron*.py procedures?

@CHMBroeders, I think this is out of the scope of the tool. What's more is that there are some fields pointing to fr24 in my Mongodb that are not exported. This is due to the concern of licensing of fr24 data. However, the base of this tool is open source, that everyone can customize it as they wanted.

Also be very aware of the licensing agreement of fr24 (https://www.flightradar24.com/terms-and-conditions). Data provide from my website is free of license because we are a contributor. But you need to check if yourself have the right to use/distribute those data if they are obtained from your setup.

Thank you very much for this info. I had a small hope that it would be possible to extent your huge file automatically with running aircraft_db.git application on my server.
In the meantime I have valid fr24 license.
After about 2 weeks, my local aircraft_db.csv file is about one third of the huge file.
Thank you for this interesting application for collecting plane infos.

@CHMBroeders, You are welcome. I am glad the tool is useful. Simply leave the tool running for a month or two, then you should have captured most of the airplanes.

Thanks, I will observe carefully and report significant results
