I have been trying for a while to get this up and running on my FA 3.7.1 pi2 image. I’ve got to the point where I have the map working, but I cannot see any aircraft of the map. I think my problem is the host ip and dumpPort variables in the variable.js file.
Could someone please describe what a correctly formatted ip section should look like. I have tried various formats and ports with no joy,
I tried to install using the installer and it appeared the download completed. (a zip file was downloaded). At the end of download it prompts to Run “service lighttpd force-reload” to enable changes. When I attempt to do this it asks for a password I don’t know. I restarted the pi and made the ip address change in the configuration file and can get into the 3d viewer with my browser. All I see are stars and rings around various airports. Any help to get working would be appreciated. Also, will I just be able to scroll to my location when I get it working (or will it pick up my piaware feeder’s location) Thanks, Will (who has no clue how any of this works. Can just follow directions…)
// Default camera position (play and space key press)
var camLat = 51.8629;
var camLon = 4.688;
var camDist = 162213;
var camPan = -0.537;
var camTilt = 1.059;
Thanks. I got it working. Found the bing key part for the map. Looks like I didn’t need to worry about doing anything with lighttpd after the install. Now for my request… Would like to be able to see 978 traffic as well (as in tar1090). Not sure what would be needed to integrate that. Thanks again for your awesome work!!!
Looks like it already gets the 978 traffic. Great!!! How do you get the tags on the aircraft (type, route?) Also, is there (or will there be) a way to select (turn on/off) individual aircraft tracks. Also, filter by altitude without having to go into the configuration file. I wish I clue how this works. Need to get my kids to figure it out for me!!!
That is just the browser debug console - you can open it by pressing F12.
The json data is available from dump1090-fa at the URL http://<pi IP>/data/aircraft.json or on the pi in the directory /run/dump1090-fa
Hello Bram,
This is Ger, it is a year ago i ask you some questions mbt the 3d project, everything works perfect than. Because of some problems i did not do match with the 3d but now it is possible again. Last year i used dump1090-mutability, now dump1090-fa. The problem is now that i can not see the labels near to the planes. I no that FA and MUTABILITY are diverend in using the json files. Bram, is it possible to explain to me how to get the labels in -FA. I get data from the pfPort 30053 but this is differend from MUTABILITY. Many thanks in advance.
Greetings Ger
HI, I’ve got rings and flight data paths showing but on a star background even though I included the Bing Key in the the variable.js file. I’ve tried two different Bing Keys and still the same. Any ideas?
