Flight path and Ground Support Vehicle path generator
Emitpy sofware aims at generate synthetic ADS-B messages as produced by both flying aircrafts or support vehicles on the ground of the airport.
It is conceived as a box software, only accessible through a REST api, and producing ADS-B messages on a Redis queue.
This repository only contains code, it does not contain any data (which sometimes is private) which is necessary for it to run.
Documentation is added as the software evolves.
The generator software is written in Python.
The basic stream processor is written in JavaScript with node-red.
The basic viewer software is also written in JavaScript with node-red.
Emitpy sofware is a perpetual beta software.
Major releases are named after naval disasters. (The name of the disaster is often the name of the ship that sunk.)
