Live ADS-B contacts
Current targets, callsigns, altitude, speed, squawk and decoded aircraft information in one focused view.
RADAR SOFTWARE
Everything happening above your antenna.
ADS-B Radar brings locally received aircraft data into a dedicated, touch-friendly interface.
THE RADAR
Built for the aircraft you can actually receive.
From a compact Raspberry Pi installation to a Linux workstation, ADS-B Radar presents live Mode-S / ADS-B traffic as an operational radar rather than a browser tab.
Watchlist
Watch registrations or aircraft types and recognize interesting traffic when it returns.
Interesting aircraft
Separate noteworthy traffic from routine contacts received directly at your location.
Local aircraft history
Build permanent visitor history and statistics from aircraft actually received at your station.
Share with trackers
Optionally feed your locally received ADS-B data to supported aircraft tracking services. Your radar itself remains completely independent.
Airport weather
Open current METAR weather directly from the radar for major airports, including wind, temperature, pressure, visibility and the raw METAR report.
Long-range local reception
With a favorable site and antenna installation, aircraft can be received hundreds of kilometres away — up to roughly 400 km in good conditions.
Free software & data updates
Application updates and aircraft, airline, flight and ICAO reference-data updates are provided without a subscription or update fee.
Dedicated display
Designed for a clean appliance-style installation with branded startup and a full-screen radar interface.
TV Radar
Turn a large screen into a live radar display with aircraft lists, selected-aircraft information and flight profiles.
GEO Web Radar
View locally received aircraft on a geographical radar screen from a compatible browser on your local network.
Worldwide Spotter Mode
Choose any airport worldwide. A receiver-distance warning explains when local reception is unlikely, without implying remote aircraft coverage.
From radio signal to aircraft contact
A compatible receiver listens for 1090 MHz Mode S and ADS-B transmissions. The reader decodes incoming messages and the radar presents the resulting aircraft information locally. Reception depends on antenna placement, terrain, obstacles and aircraft altitude.
Radar on TV and in your browser
TV Radar and GEO Web Radar are additional ways to view aircraft actually received by the box. They do not require a separate ADS-B receiver or an online flight-tracking account. See both interfaces and screenshots →
Spotter Mode: airports around the world
Select any airport worldwide to focus the display. The radar checks how far that airport is from the receiver and warns if reception is unlikely. Changing the display center does not change antenna coverage. See the warning and example →
Aircraft collections and spotting
Aircraft Collections turn unusual and disappearing aircraft types into spotting goals. The radar can use local aircraft history to distinguish new encounters from repeat visits, making each receiving station’s collection unique.
