"Skyward Bound: Merging Technology and Nature with ADSB Flight Tracking"

Jan 25, 2025 - 10:07amSan Diego-City Heights

Comment: Start of the Adsb journey

Caption: Combing technology with the outdoors: Exploring aviation through ADSB flight tracking amidst nature.

Description: The scene centers around a detailed view of a computer screen, showcasing various applications that appear to be part of an ADSB (Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast) data setup, hinting at an individual's journey in exploring aircraft tracking technology. The screen is divided into multiple windows. One window lists a folder named 'Downloads,' containing various files like 'blade.stl,' 'blade.scad,' 'test.scad,' an acoustic medley mp3 file, and tax return documents, indicating a mix of projects and personal finance tracking. Another section contains technical information related to software libraries such as 'libavutil,' 'libavcodec,' and others with associated version information, suggesting software development or application support. Below these windows is a console-like application displaying real-time flight data including hex codes (a2a823, aa9d55, etc.), flight names, altitudes, speeds, and geographical coordinates. The data represents various aircraft in flight, with some entries showing altitudes and ground tracks while others have placeholder values like zero. The broadband nature of this setup suggests the use of a hardware or software-defined radio to capture ADSB signals. The backdrop suggests natural outdoor lighting with some reflections, showing that the computer could be outside, perhaps near a forested area.The scene centers around a detailed view of a computer screen, showcasing various applications that appear to be part of an ADSB (Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast) data setup, hinting at an individual's journey in exploring aircraft tracking technology.
