To load real world air traffic, the Sharp Airplanes Radar could load data from these networks:
Source Networks | README |
---|---|
OpenSky Network | The OpenSky Network is a community-based receiver network which has been continuously collecting air traffic surveillance data since 2013. Their API is open to the comunnity. |
FlightRadar24 | The most famous receiver network. Their API is not open to the comunnity, they have paid plans. Their API is here for test only, do not use it in commercial/open source/personal projects. |
ModeSMixer2 | ModeSMixer2 is console application for combining and rebroadcasting feeds with Mode-S data in a variety of formats. This software is commonly used by single receivers. |
It is only needed to select the network.
var client = AirplanesRadars.OpenSky();
var listOfWorldAirplanes = await client.GetAirplanes();
Would you like to see the airplanes around your city? It is very easy too, you just need to know what is the airport code, actually I meant, the airport ICAO code from where you wish.
var client = AirplanesRadars.OpenSky();
// Let's see how is the air traffic in Los Angeles
var listOfWorldAirplanes = await client.GetAirplanes(Airport.GetAirportByICAO("KLAX").Position);
