Raspi ADS-B

Been getting in touch with my Inner Geek lately, playing with software defined radio . This is a Raspberry Pi 2 with Chromium browser on a 3.5" TFT display processing ADS-B data in dump1090 with an RTL-USB stick on the end of a 50' powered USB cable with the stock antenna 4' off the ground just outside of Der Bunker. The data is also being fed to Flightaware.com.

 

You can see the full-sized version of the map here: 69.81.76.67:8080/

 

Scroll the map over to Akron, Ohio and zoom about 50%.

 

I got the project details here: www.satsignal.eu/raspberry-pi/dump1090.html

 

SDR is a blast and the Raspberry Pi is an amazingly capable little beast. The mini keyboard with mousepad makes all the difference using the small screen.
