tar1090 is an improved web interface for ADS-B decoders such as readsb and dump1090-fa, visualizing real-time aircraft traffic on a map. It adds features like adjustable history, faster track rendering, multiple maps, and multi-aircraft selection on top of an existing decoder installation.

Use cases

  • visualize ads-b aircraft traffic on a map
  • improve the web interface of my dump1090 or readsb setup
  • track planes received with an rtl-sdr dongle
  • view historical flight tracks and coverage of my ads-b receiver
  • run a flight tracking dashboard on a raspberry pi
  • select and follow multiple aircraft at once in a browser

When to avoid

  • you need an ADS-B decoder itself - tar1090 only adds a web interface, not decoding
  • your system is not Debian/Raspbian/Ubuntu-based since installation relies on apt
  • you need guaranteed support or a warranty - the project explicitly provides none
