An additional MLAT server was brought online this evening. This is a dedicated 5.0Ghz server for the eastern US. It also allows load to be removed from other servers. We’ll run it like this for now and see how it goes. East coast people – let me know if you have any MLAT issues. Read More …
So, everyone has been asking about better historical data, including full flight paths, not just start and end points. We have a feature under development, and it’s at least ready to the point we can start getting some use out of it. This feature is still in testing, and could still be “Under Construction” over Read More …
All, FYI, in order to improve MLAT performance and reliability, we have a 5.0 Ghz water-cooled server on order. ETA is 10 days from now. This should address any issues we have in certain high-traffic regions at busy times of the day. Thanks, Dan
Hello everyone, just wanted to update you on the latest things happening. We have a programmer working on what is shaping up to be an excellent historical flight path visualization tool for historical data. Of course, this will be free to everyone, with no filtered aircraft. I anticipate this will be live by the end Read More …
ADSBexchange.com is looking for a developer to help improve our historical flight visualization ability. View description here: https://www.upwork.com/jobs/~010e1ca90f2fbd3055
Do you have jagged, wiggly MLAT tracks when viewing your local dump1090 client? If you’re using the ADSBexchange image install for Raspberry pi, it’s likely because the dump1090 display is showing both FlightAware and ADSBexchange MLAT results. FlightAware does have a more complete (but filtered/obfuscated) MLAT network, so your best bet if these squiggly tracks Read More …

A new, 16-core server has been deployed for MLAT calculations. I have broken out the regions further to allow the server to handle the load and reduce the size of the sync matrix. See here: https://www.adsbexchange.com/active-feeds/
All, if you are feeding us data, you may have noticed some dropped or unreliable connections from your feeder. The good (and bad) news is that this is due to the CPUs on our incoming servers being completely overwhelmed at certain times of the day, as well as the CPUs on our MLAT server being maxed Read More …
OK, well, not full-time employees. We don’t have a large budget, but are looking for some assistance in a couple areas. If you’re interested in the aircraft tracking hobby, and have technical skills and a few extra hours, see our job postings on UpWork: Display and querying of Geographic Aircraft Data Migrate WordPress Site / Read More …
