Live vehicle position updates for aircraft
Background
ADS-B
is how most of the data is provided.
Limiting Aircraft Data Displayed (LADD)
allows some aircraft to hide part of their data from online.
One way to work around it is to use
ADSB-Exchange
.
[explanation]
ADS-B Exchange crowdsources its data from many people having a
personal ADS-B receiver
.
For more, see ADSBExchange's
"Isn't this a security risk?" section here
.
Useful knowledge
Flightradar24
is one of the most popular apps for accessing ADS-B data.
