hi all,
have a look at the following: http://radar.zhaw.ch
looks good and interesting.

That map (googlemap) feature is very good, something maybe Airnav will look at producing for us?  ;) please

Certainly a very nice web system. Similar to others on the net.
Not exactly sure whether it is actually Live and what flights it picks up (i.e what its data source is)

However to have a system like this on a large scale (showing a larger area) would be very processor intensive both for the customer view and the server.

Having said that it is techincally possible to use your own 5 minute delayed feed from there own RadarBox and create something similar.

I am curious how you would display the radarbox radar to the web of course with a 5 mn delay.  Do you know how to stream the radar online that you see on your radar box software? Thanks.

The 5 minute delay gives you the position data of the flights you have picked up. You would just need some programming knowldege and the google map api to display this on a internet site. A bit harder is the automatic refresh they have as well as the trails but nothing impossible.

However you would need to be carefull and check your indivudal countries laws regarding broadcasting that information.

There is no delay for shure ;-)
I check that with my RB here in Zurich.
It is the big work of three students, and now and for the future it will be freeware.
Since some weeks this program is a little sensation here in Switzerland.

hi all,
walter is right, there's no delay: you can turn in to zürich app/dep and radar on liveatc.net and listen to the radio transmissions and you will see that it is real-time!
I track swiss planes departing and arriving EDDN and flying to zurüch or back on my radarbox. around stuttgart I lose contact normally but I then switch to zurich page in most cases the aircraft shines up a little bit south of stuttgart. so I track all these flights from EDDN to zurich in realtime!! it's really great!
regards

It would be great to have mapping detail like this for use with our RB boxes, any chance in the future?
