Hello!

For visualising real-time data using BlueSky, you can create a plugin that makes use of the move command:
https://github.com/TUDelft-CNS-ATM/bluesky/wiki/Move

Thus, with every update that is received from the live data source, this command can be used to update the state parameters of an aircraft (position, heading, speed, etc.).
Check out this tutorial on how to create a plugin:
https://github.com/TUDelft-CNS-ATM/bluesky/wiki/plugin

If you want to use historical data, generating a scenario file might be simpler. You can either make use of the move command as above, or add waypoints with altitude, velocity, speed, and required time of arrival constraints (using the ADDWPT and RTA commands) such that the aircraft follows the given path.

The relevant documentation for commands can be found here:
https://github.com/TUDelft-CNS-ATM/bluesky/wiki/Command-Reference
These commands can be chained and put in a .scn file with a time stamp. Check out one of the example scenarios to see how this can be done:
