Python scripts to load and visualize OpenSky Network air traffic data

Load and visualize OpenSky Network air traffic data with Python framework (geo/pandas, contextily...)

Air traffic data are either provided as JSON files from the OpenSky live REST API or requested to the OpenSky historical database with Paramiko

Flight data are stored as pandas / GeoPandas dataframes

The map background is built with contextily

Images are built with PIL and Matplotlib

Example: plot latest tracks over France (10 positions in the last 10 minutes)

lastest

Example 2: plot trajectories of emergency helicopters over Paris (summer 2020) historical

Example 3: plot latest positions of flights over Belgium instant_traffic

Running the tests

Run the different notebooks to load and visualize data:

  • demo_unauthenticated_instant: load and visualize rapidly on a map latest flight positions (ex: over Belgium)

  • demo_authenticated_latest: load and visualize successive positions from recent flight positions (ex: over France)

  • demo_historical_database: load and visualize past flight trajectories (ex: emergency helicopters over Paris)

Built With

  • Paramiko - A Python implementation of SSHv2

  • pandas - Python Data Analysis Library

  • GeoPandas - GeoPandas is an open source project which extends the datatypes used by pandas to allow spatial operations on geometric types.

  • contextily - Context geo-tiles in Python

Version

Code tested with the following configuration: Python 3.7.4, paramiko 2.7.2, pandas 0.25.1, geopandas 0.6.3 and contextily 1.0rc2
