flightjar

Self-hosted ADS-B flight tracking with live map and alerts

Tracks live aircraft from a local ADS-B receiver and displays them on an interactive map with routes, photos, weather, and telemetry. Eliminates manual decoder setup, scattered data lookups, and missed aircraft sightings through automatic enrichment and server-side watchlist alerts. Includes guided workflows for adding map layers, endpoints, notification channels, tests, and screenshots to extend the tracker safely.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQPage Schema
How to install flightjar?▼

Run `npx skills add MrSuttonmann/flightjar --all -g -y` in your terminal to install all skills in this suite globally.

What does flightjar do?▼

It is a self-hosted flight tracker that reads a BEAST feed from your ADS-B receiver and shows live aircraft on a map with routes, photos, weather, and telemetry. It also sends watchlist and emergency-squawk alerts via Telegram, ntfy, or webhooks.

Do I need special hardware to use flightjar?▼

You need a running ADS-B decoder such as readsb, dump1090-fa, or ultrafeeder exposing a BEAST feed on TCP port 30005. Flightjar itself runs as a single Docker container, including on a Raspberry Pi.

Can I extend flightjar with new features?▼

Yes. The included skills guide your agent through adding map overlays, HTTP endpoints, notification channels, sidebar sections, and external data clients while following the project's tested patterns.

Does flightjar work without an internet connection?▼

Core tracking works fully offline from your local receiver. Optional enrichments like routes, photos, and weather come from free public APIs and can be individually disabled for privacy or offline use.
