I am trying to add a few airports, and found the airport.js file. Just wondering where that data is from, eg the id, is that just a key from the original database?

I used info from shogooda website

airport data

Downloading data
http://ourairports.com/data/

Download airports.csv.

Open it with Microsoft Excel or LibreOffice and check the contents.
MyRadar 24 will not move if you register everything because there is too much volume.
Select from the 2nd line to the last line and rearrange the data with the iso_country column.
Delete all lines of unnecessary countries.

If it still seems that the amount of data is large, rearrange the data in the type column and delete lines such as heliport.

Save the data as CSV.

Convert CSV to JSON with online service

Paste the created JSON data into new text.
Add to the beginning of the line below

{
“airport”: [
Add to the last line
]
}

Save and rename to airports.json.

I see airport name’s :airplane:

Yes, found the database and added a few by just adding them by hand to the airports.js file. I guess you just need the name, position, elevation and type to have them show up :+1:

Worked like a charm after I found all the , and { I missed :grin:

Not so lonely Hummel3 this time…

Man you need some more granular history :stuck_out_tongue:

Or are the gliders MLAT?

Gliders are MLAT…

I have multiple ADS-B gliders in the area :wink:

They make funny loops on the map.

Really nice extra features …!
PF-client and Aircraft type, flightlevel, directions.

I seem to have got this partly working (See attached) but I’d be grateful for some help with the following:

  1. There doesn’t appear to be any flight details on the display i.e. callsign, Aircraft type etc. Have I missed doing something in the setups.

  2. Please could someone provide me with some simple instructions on how to manipulate the image. It open up vertically above the Netherlands (is that correct or should it be centered on the entered Lat and Long?). However, when I try to move to the UK I end up with a low oblique view rather than vertical or high oblique

Many thanks

Stormy Weather…

Can you write up how you did this?
I life in the netherland and here they are going to complane about a new airport opening and I am curious if i can visualize that they are just complaining for complaining… :slight_smile:

I mean ofcourse evangelyul
with PF-client and Aircraft type, flightlevel, directions

and second question… Is there a possibilty to log old data? so you can rewind or look at the data an other moment?

Sorry for dropping questions :slight_smile:

Not really with the 3d viewer. (Unless you program it :wink: )

I’ve just recently made a replay function for the dump1090 webinterface, give it a try:
GitHub - wiedehopf/timelapse1090: timelapse web interface for dump1090-fa (using the map interface from dump1090-fa as base)

It’s just javascript, not that complicated.

If you just install the planefinder client the old version would just display the route and aircraft type.
I believe bramjacobse changed it though to only use dump1090-fa data.

Any chance to make the planefinder data labels a switch in the settings file?
