Broadcasting and receiving position via mobile data.

Hi
I am implementing now broadcasting your position to FIF server via mobile data and receiving positions from server.

Broadcasting:
- User can enable/disable broadcasting. Broadcasting can be public or private (only FID user who knows group ID can access private data)
- There are stored only the last position at the FIF server, no history.

Receiving:
- User can enable/disable broadcasting.
- User can select, which groups wants to see (if he knows their group id)

Question:
Is there anybody who would implement simple web application? Only map with the aircrafts from FIF server.

Sample of http request:
www.funair.cz/flyisfun/position/getposi ... a;FIF;Test

Result is the XML file. See attached file...

There is a program called TRACCAR - http://www.traccar.org/ - (among others) that tracks cars. I use it.
It understands a bunch of protocols. Some of them are very simple.

If you manage to implement one of those protocols you can track the acfts in a blink.
Just point FiF to my server. I can create an account for you.

cheers

I use another app to do tracking which works well "Real Time GPS Tracker" will it work like this but from within FIF? Great if it does.... Peter G

Look at the picture :-)
It is working - beta version. We are trying to add some ADS-B network, communicating with owners...

looks pretty nice!

Our region is well sampled by ads open databases e.g. flightradar24.com
It may be possible to download streams from them, eventually.

best,

We contacted people from FR24, but they do not want to share data. lIt is possible to access their data, but without FR24 permission I do not want to do it.

Hi Petr,

Have you thought about integrating to an existing environment like this, rather than setup another site

http://www.glympse.com/

You'd have to use their API's directly from Android.

Just a thought

I think, FIF have to display only aviation data. So I am trying to connect to some ADS-B site...
