ADS-B flight tracker with your Raspberry Pi

ADS-B flight tracker with your Raspberry Pi

I have built and running an ADS-B ground station for CDN$150 / USD$120 FlightAware has easy instructions that walk you through the purchasing, assembly, and setup of a PiAware ADS-B receiver. It takes about two hours to setup your own ADS-B ground station and track flights in real-time.

Raspberry Pi powered ground station using Software Defined Radio(SDR) to receive ADS-B messages directly from commercial flights and publish MQTT messages to IBM IoT Platform.

Raspberry Pi powered ground station for commercial flights that does the following:

• receives [Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast(ADS-B)] messages broadcasted by commercial flights using a Software-Defined Radio(SDR) device tuned to 1090 MHz frequency
• decodes ADS-B messages from commercial flights
• publishes corresponding MQTT messages to [Bluemix Internet of Things(IoT) Platform] in IBM's Bluemix Cloud.

Installing SDR program to receive ADS-B to see aircraft information.

Download program from here:
https://github.com/MalcolmRobb/dump10...

unzip master.zip
cd dump1090-master
make
cp dump1090 /usr/bin/
cp view1090 /usr/bin/

dump1090 --interactive

You can also set it up as a server with:
dump1090 --interactive --net --net-beast --net-ro-port 30005

Then start a client:
view1090 --net-bo-ipaddr {server IP}

Antenna is Diamond D3000N from www.strictlyham.com.au
