Set the initial dump1090-fa map location

Finally got around to getting my piaware system set up. Works, looks good.

But when I go to /dump1090-fa the default center is somewhere in Italy.

I’m sure there is a way to change this.

Can someone clue me in where the magic needs to go?

Thanks!

If you configure your receiver location on your stats page (flightaware.com/adsb/stats/user/bownes), then restart piaware, dump1090-fa will pick up on that location.

I’ve put together another PiAware receiver with a universal rtl-sdr dongle, PiAware 3.3 package based install.
Claimed the site, but it is not showing up on my stats page and cannot set location.
It’s been a few hours since I claimed the receiver.

Did you also restart piaware and dump1090-fa as indicated by OBJ above?

Yes, rebooted the Raspberry Pi.

Great service from FlightAware support team!

Open the gmap.html file and locate the initialize() function. Inside this function, right after its declaration, you’ll see the following line of code:

Map = L.map('map_canvas').setView([37.0, 13.0], 8);

Replace the hardcoded coordinates in this line, then save the file and try running it again."
