ogn2dump1090

Simple tool to inject OpenGliderNet Data into a dump1090-fa instance (optionally with tar1090 as an additional webinterface) for display on a unified map

Getting started

Manual Setup on a dump1090-fa instance

sudo apt install --yes python3-pip
sudo pip3 install ogn-client
git clone https://github.com/wiedehopf/mlat-client.git
cd mlat-client && sudo python3 setup.py install

Now install the OGN Client as described here: http://wiki.glidernet.org/wiki:manual-installation-guide (Don't let ogn-rf/ogn-decode start on boot. ogn2dump1090 will start these processes) You can use the ogn_setup.conf configuration as a starting point (but be sure to put the correct coordinates in there). Now open config.py and set the path to your OGN installation. Afterwards, you can simply run ./ogn2dump1090.py and should be fine. This requires an already running dump1090-mutability or dump1090-fa instance with the --net argument.

Automatic Setup

This repository contains a simple setup script to install everything that's needed (including the latest dump1090-fa version) on a Pi3B or Pi4B with a fresh RasPiOS installed. It requires basic RasPiOS knowledge (i.e. installation connect via SSH and basic Linux shell stuff) To use it, follow these steps:

• Flash a micro SD Card with the latest RasPiOS Image and enable ssh by placing an empty file called ssh to its boot partition
• Connect to it via ssh
• run these commands:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install --yes git
git clone https://github.com/b3nn0/ogn2dump1090.git
cd ogn2dump1090
./install.sh

and press y a couple of times After a reboot, you should be able to open http://raspberrypi/skyaware/ (or optionally http://raspberrypi/tar1090) and see Mode-S, ADS-B and OGN/FLARM aircraft on the web interface.

For further configuration modifications, please edit:

OGN configuration:

/home/pi/ogn2dump1090/ogn_setup.conf

dump1090 configuration (up to dump1090 verison 5)

/etc/default/dump1090-fa needs to be modified according to your setup, e.g.

RECEIVER_OPTIONS="--device-index 0 --gain 28.0 --ppm 0 --lat 50.0 --lon 10.0"

dump1090 configuration (dump1090 as of version 6)

/etc/default/dump1090-fa.default has been modified accordingly in the underlying dump1090-fa fork

/etc/default/dump1090-fa needs to be modified according to your setup, e.g.

RECEIVER_SERIAL=1090
RECEIVER_LAT=50.0
RECEIVER_LON=10.0

mlat support

You can run mlat-client to connect to your favourite mlat server. The results will be seen on the web interface.

Adding OpenAIP Airspaces to the map - work in progress!!

go to /usr/share/skyaware/html and edit layers.js. At the end of the file, right before the line that says return layers;, add this code:

        layers.push(new ol.layer.Tile({
                source: new ol.source.XYZ({url: "http://2.tile.maps.openaip.net/geowebcache/service/tms/1.0.0/openaip_basemap@EPSG%3A900913@png/{z}/{x}/{-y}.png", visible:true, opaque:false}),
                name: 'openaip',
                title: 'OpenAIP',
                type: 'overlay',
        }));

After refreshing the page, OpenAIP should now load above the OSM base layer.
