Feed adsb.fi using an existing receiver running readsb / dump1090 / piaware / Raspbian / Linux

adsb.fi feed client

• These scripts aid in setting up your current ADS-B receiver to feed adsb.fi.
• They will not disrupt any existing feed clients already present.

1: Find coordinates and elevation

https://www.freemaptools.com/elevation-finder.htm

2: Install the feed client

curl -L -o /tmp/feed.sh https://adsb.fi/feed.sh
sudo bash /tmp/feed.sh

3: Use netstat to check that your feed is working

The feed IP for adsb.fi is 103.196.37.90

netstat -t -n | grep -E '30004|31090'

Expected Output:

tcp        0    182 localhost:43530     103.196.37.90:31090      ESTABLISHED
tcp        0    410 localhost:47332     103.196.37.90:30004      ESTABLISHED

4: Optional: Install local interface for your data

The interface will be available at http://192.168.X.XX/adsbfi
Replace the IP address with the address of your Raspberry Pi.

Install / Update:

sudo bash /usr/local/share/adsbfi/git/install-or-update-interface.sh

Remove:

sudo bash /usr/local/share/tar1090/uninstall.sh adsbfi

Update the feed client without reconfiguring

curl -L -o /tmp/update.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adsbfi/adsb-fi-scripts/master/update.sh
sudo bash /tmp/update.sh

If you encounter issues, please do a reboot and then supply these logs on Discord (last 20 lines for each is sufficient):

sudo journalctl -u adsbfi-feed --no-pager
sudo journalctl -u adsbfi-mlat --no-pager

Display the configuration

cat /etc/default/adsbfi

Changing the configuration

This is the same as the initial installation. If the client is up to date it should not take as long as the original installation, otherwise this will also update the client which will take a moment.

curl -L -o /tmp/feed.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adsbfi/adsb-fi-scripts/master/install.sh
sudo bash /tmp/feed.sh

Disable / Enable adsb.fi MLAT-results in your main decoder interface (readsb / dump1090-fa)

This is enabled by default. You probably don't need to change that.

• Disable:

sudo sed --follow-symlinks -i -e 's/RESULTS=.*/RESULTS=""/' /etc/default/adsbfi
sudo systemctl restart adsbfi-mlat

• Enable:

sudo sed --follow-symlinks -i -e 's/RESULTS=.*/RESULTS="--results beast,connect,127.0.0.1:30104"/' /etc/default/adsbfi
sudo systemctl restart adsbfi-mlat

Restart the feed client

sudo systemctl restart adsbfi-feed
sudo systemctl restart adsbfi-mlat

Show status

sudo systemctl status adsbfi-feed
sudo systemctl status adsbfi-mlat

Removal / disabling the services

sudo bash /usr/local/share/adsbfi/uninstall.sh

If the above doesn't work, you can just disable the services and the scripts won't run anymore:

sudo systemctl disable --now adsbfi-feed
sudo systemctl disable --now adsbfi-mlat
