Planeplotter 5.4.2.2 | 6.3 MB
Using PlanePlotter, you can see a radar-like display of all those
aircraft around you that are transmitting the appropriate digital
messages including ACARS, ADS-B and HFDL.
PlanePlotter - Features
Message display
PlanePlotter shows a table display of messages received and decoded from live aircraft transmissions.
Data saving
PlanePlotter archives all the digital data that it receives and decodes to a log file.
Chart display
PlanePlotter plots aircraft positions, altitudes and times decoded from
the message traffic that it receives. These include embedded position
reports, AMDAR reports and ADS reports contained in ACARS messages,
ADS-B position reports received by the Kinetic SBS1� or AirNav System
RadarBox� Mode-S receivers, and position reports on HF using Charles
Brain's PC-HFDL software. The plot can be superimposed on a suitable
aeronatical chart that you have prepared, or PlanePlotter can download
satellite imagery and plot the aircraft symbols on that. Where altitude
information is available (eg Mode-S messages), you can select the data
by altitude band to distinguish low level and high level traffic.
Google Earth server
If you are receiving Mode-S ADS-B position reports, PlanePlotter can
interface to Google Earth to display aircraft positions over the Google
Earth base map. It can even give you a dynamic real-time view from the
flight deck of an aircraft that you designate.
Direction finding
PlanePlotter can determine and display the direction of any
transmission using a simple passive antenna switch. This allows
aircraft to be located even if they are not equipped with ACARS or
Mode-S/ADS-B.
Input signals
PlanePlotter can decode ACARS messages, display the message content and plot any positions on a chart.
PlanePlotter can also process and display ADS-B position reports
captured by the Kinetic SBS1� or AirNav Systems RadarBox� mode-S
receivers.
PlanePlotter can also work in conjunction with Charles
Brain's PC-HFDL software by automatically extracting position reports
from the log file and plotting them in real time on the same chart
display. PlanePlotter adds value by calculating course and heading from
successive reports from the same aircraft and plotting the predicted
position between reports (right).
PlanePlotter can drive a passive antenna switch and display the direction (QDM) of any aircraft voice transmission.
GPX overlays
PlanePlotter can display waypoints, tracks or routes over the current chart using data from a user-defined GPX format file.
Alerts
PlanePlotter can generate visible and audible alerts on detection of a
specified registration, flight number or ADS identifier, on detection
of any new aircraft, or on detection of an aircraft whose position is
inside a user-defined Alert zone polygon.
Memory-Map Navigator support
PlanePlotter can direct the Memory-Map Navigator program to display
dynamic aircraft position symbols over its proprietary maps using data
from either ACARS or Mode-S ADS-B (in conjunction with the SBS1
receiver).
OLE/COM interface
You can access the position and
other data for each aircraft known to PlanePlotter using a simple VB
script or other OLE/COM capable program. You can use the same interface
to update data held by PlanePlotter and to control the user interface.
DDE access
You can access ACARS, HFDL and Mode-S messages received by PlanePlotter
using DDE. This facility makes PlanePlotter an ideal front end for
other ACARS software.
Peer-to-peer output
PlanePlotter can send
its message data to another remote instance of PlanePlotter using
UDP/IP datagrams. You can send ACARS messages, HFDL messages, Mode-S
(ADS-cool.gif messages and Direction finding measurements so that
another computer displays the same data as your computer.
Peer-to-peer audio
PlanePlotter can send audio to another remote instance of PlanePlotter
using UDP/IP datagrams. This means that a remote user can hear the ATC
instructions that you are hearing on your local air band receiver.
Internet sharing
PlanePlotter can send its message data to a shared server so that
messages that you have received locally (ACARS, HFDL or ADS-cool.gif,
can be seen by other PlanePlotter users in different areas. In this
way, each user enjoys the reception coverage of all the cooperating
users together.
HF selcal decoding
PlanePlotter can decode HF
selcal tones that can be used to identify an aircraft communicating on
the HF air bands. No position reports are carried by HF selcal but it
provides yet another means of monitoring aircraft that PlanePlotter can
perform.
Report generator
PlanePlotter can generate a text file containing user-defined data fields for aircraft received during the session.
Movie generator
PlanePlotter can generate an AVI movie file showing a speeded up
version of the display window. You can review aircraft movements,
including those received by sharing, at a later date by paying the AVI
file in, for example, Windows Media Player.
Requirements to run PlanePlotter
* Pentium level PC running 2k/XP/Vista with compatible sound card
* For ACARS : VHF receiver tuned to an appropriate ACARS channel in
AM mode and Aircraft within VHF range that are transmitting the messages
* For ADS-B : Kinetic SBS1(tm) Mode-S receiver and BaseStation
software or AirNav Systems RadarBox(tm) receiver system. Versions of
PlanePlotter up to 2.6 work with the Spider version of BaseStation;
subsequent versions work with the Snoopy BaseStation. Versions of
PlanePlotter from 3.8 work with the RadarBox(tm)
* For real-time flight deck views : Google Earth software
* For direction finding : DF antenna switch
* For HFDL plotting : PC-HFDL software and an HF SSB receiver
* For HF selcal decoding : HF receiver with USB mode and fine tuning steps
* To share local ATC calls : VHF receiver with AM mode tuned to your local ATC frequencies
