ADSBCOT: ADS-B to TAK Gateway

The ADS-B to TAK Gateway (ADSBCOT) transforms Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) aircraft position information into Cursor on Target for display on TAK Products such as ATAK, WinTAK & iTAK.

ADS-B data can be recevied from dump1090 using the following network formats:

1. Local file.

2. Aircraft JSON HTTP feed. See dump1090 README-json.md.

3. Raw TCP (via pyModeS)

4. Beast TCP (via pyModeS)

If you’d like to feed ADS-B from another source, consider these tools:

• adsbxcot: ADSBExchange.com to CoT Gateway. Transforms ADS-B position messages to CoT PLI Events.

• stratuxcot: Stratux ADS-B to CoT Gateway. Transforms position messages to CoT PLI Events.
