Edit planemarker

Hello,
How can i add data such as speed, altitude and flight to the plane markers on the local site of my Pi.

Photo example of what I mean:

Kind regards,
PHMLR

I believe that is a built-in option in VRS. so you could install that on a Windoz machine and feed it from your Pi. I do that, and it works well. I only run it occasionally though. http://virtualradarserver.co.uk/

Brighter minds than mine may have an answer for you for the dump1090 plot.

I’ve made a few mods to the standard maps which includes adding labels to the icons, please see this and subsequent posts: post186843.html#p186843

VRS is running whitout mlat data from Flightaware.

maby jou can look to the code.
i’am editing gmap.html for use on a mobilephone.
And want only a text label.
