Real-world traffic in ES?

Maybe a stupid idea...but...

Is there any way that real world data from http://www.flightradar24.com/ could be integrated in EuroScope trough a live server, a simulator server or something? Would be really cool if we could follow real air traffic in Euroscope!

I don't know if anyone is still interested in this topic, but I managed to get IRL traffic in Euroscope working using the Opensky Network. How it works and the source code can be found on the git

If you would convert it to a feed like http://www.net-flyer.net/DataFeed/vatsim-data.txt, ou could already use it in EuroScope

 

But, to be honest: why would you want that? THat is not the point of EuroScope.

I know that ES not is made for that, but i think it would be nice to have the aircrafts moving on a high realistic radar where we can change colours, move and edit the tags, show SID/STARs and airways drawed on the map ++. -instead of the google map =)

I am thinking on an SBS-1 data feed at the moment, and also the possibility to allow a plug-in to pupm data into the system.

You know my C++ is not that perfect, but I also thought about that. Would [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ist in testing and - where able - programming.

 

SBS-1 is available

Hopefully... But I bet it won't take long until someone tries to control those aircraft, too

I uploaded a trial version of the program to http://www.euroscope.hu/sbstofsdproxy/SBStoFSDproxy.zip. It is actually a very lightweight FSD server. You can connect to it with EuroScope. It supports multiple connections therefore you can share your SBS-1 traffic. It also supports private chats, but no more functions.

 

When started you can connect it to the SBS-1 TCP/IP socket by defining the server and the port. It displays all the incoming data in the list and also sends the data as plane position to EuroScope clients. It has a built in error recovery to be able to interpret the non complete lines from SBS-1.

 

If it has data about a plane then it moves it in every 5 seconds (to be conform with FSD) to the last known direction with the last known GS. When a real coordinate is received then an IDENT is sent. In this way you will know what is simulated and what is real.

 

In the packet you can find some data files:

- icao24.txt - is a list of the ICAO hexident and plane registration numbers (there are 7818 records so far)

- aircrafts.txt - is a list of registered aircraft based on their registration number (161868 records so far)

- flightplans.txt - is a list of flight plans (19024 records so far)

 

You may need to copy the Microsoft DLLs and manifest files from your EuroScope installation if the EXE does not start.

 

Just try it and have some fun.

 

p.s. You may send notes on it to here, but it is not a fully supported program. Just use as it is.

Gergely.

Can you check you compiled as release?

 

Get an error message about the side-to-side configuration.

Yes, that is what I tried to suggest by "You may need to copy the Microsoft DLLs and manifest files from your EuroScope installation if the EXE does not start." Copy the following files to the EXE folder:

 

mfc80.dll

mfc80u.dll

mfcm80.dll

mfcm80u.dll

MFCMIFC80.dll

Microsoft.VC80.CRT.manifest

Microsoft.VC80.MFC.manifest

msvcm80.dll

msvcp80.dll

msvcr80.dll

I wonder why they do not have the voice flag set... Those real-life pilots just do not know what to put in their flight-plan remarks and leave that up to the controllers...

Do I understand correctly that one must own a SBS/Radarbox for this to work?

Or it is possible to get it to work with flightradar24.com's data?

If needed, I can get in touch with flightradar24 admins, as I am a little bit of "involved" person

To be honest I do not really know what data you can get from flightradar24.com. This proxy needs a TCP/IP port to be opened to read the data stream from. This stream has to be the have the syntax that is used by SBS-1. If you can have such source then you can use it there.

I just contacted the FR24's admins on this topic and got some not very good news. Some of the feeders have only given permission to use the data on FR24 website, so this would be a violation of that agreement, and so some areas should be filtered out. And on the other hand, they have a very long to-do list and most likely we won't see any export from FR24 until at least August, even in filtered form. Sure I would love to see the permissions to be changed to include Euroscope users, but that's beyound my reach.

I noticed that there are planes which do not have to TAG aircraft type and registration number. In radarbox these data are in TAG. How can I fix this problem?

 

 

 

The user Radarbox dynamic ip, as you can connect SBStoFSDproxy server that other users would have seen it on the server data?

I think that you need to create a network in Euroscope. Developers Euroscope, thank you, that you have created a plugin for users of SBS / Radarbox. I hope that this project will be further implemented.

Can a user who has a local network to transmit data to an external SBStoProxy?

SBStoProxy just needs a TCP/IP socket connection and then reads the data stream from there. If you can serve this feed, then it should work.

Is it possible to transfer data users Radarbox to shared server?

I do not know if such kind of server is available.
