EasyADSB
Turn a Raspberry Pi into a multi-feed ADS-B tracker in minutes.
One command. Six flight networks. A dashboard you'll actually want to look at.
What It Does
EasyADSB sets up your Raspberry Pi + RTL-SDR dongle to feed aircraft data to six tracking networks simultaneously — with a custom dashboard for monitoring everything.
| Network | Type | |---------|------| | ADSBexchange | Global unfiltered tracking | | ADSB.lol | Privacy-focused community | | FlightAware | Commercial flight tracker | | FlightRadar24 | Worldwide tracker | | RadarBox | Aviation data platform | | tar1090 | Your own local map |
Quick Start
# Install Docker
curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | sh
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER && sudo reboot
# Clone and run
git clone https://github.com/datboip/easyadsb.git
cd easyadsb && chmod +x setup.sh && ./setup.sh
The setup wizard handles everything — location, service keys, Docker containers. Open http://<your-pi-ip>:8081 when it's done.
Features
Live Map
Interactive Leaflet map with altitude-colored aircraft, real-time heading, 6 map styles, distance rings, reception range overlay, trails, and heatmap.

SQLite database logging every aircraft position. Configurable sample rate (5-60s), auto-cleanup, CSV/JSON export, and a full REST API.
Replay & Live Loop
Replay historical flights with a full timeline scrubber. Live loop mode plays the last few hours like a weather radar — loops through history, dwells on live, and repeats.
