Are there any rules around calling pilotGeoJSON and atcGeoJSON? It's pretty awesome, but I don't want to screw it up or do something frowned upon.

Hi Jeff,

 

Sure thing! Please do note that the map.vatsim.net site and all corresponding APIs are still in early beta and I cannot guarantee the accuracy of either. Furthermore, I'd ask that you rate limit calls to every 5 minutes. Each of these endpoints update every 5 minutes, so calling them anymore often than that is just wasting resources

 

Regards,

Great. Totally understand the limits and the beta caveat.
