If you are running a Raspberry Pi ADS-B receiver with dump1090 then you can install the PiAware Package from FlightAware to freely view nearby flight traffic and transmit this data to FlightAware’s tracking network. With a decent outdoor antenna setup, you can track flights up to a few hundred miles away. Aircraft within Europe by 2017 and USA by 2020 will be required to have ADS-B transmitters onboard, with many aircraft already possessing this equipment.įlightAware’s user-hosted worldwide ADS-B receiver network tracks about 90,000 unique aircraft per day and feeds this live data into the FlightAware website in combination with other public/private flight tracking data sources. The company ebcTech who makes AIS Share for Android has recently come out with a new app which is an Android App version of Dump1090.Dump1090 is a popular command line based ADS-B decoder for RTL-SDR dongles which allows you to receive and plot the locations of nearby aircraft on a map.

If you don't have PlanePlotter, you can download it and then send FlightAware your installation's serial number and we'll buy you a license. Very excited to see that dump1090-win is feeding Planeplotter and see aboult 2X the number of aircraft vs old radarbox also 2x the distance in just a few min of use.
FlightAware will also give users a free Enterprise Account ($90/month value) in return for installing PiAware.
