This project is more than just correlating flight and weather data in Augmented Reality. It has a Raspberry Pi powered Ground Station that uses a Software Defined Radio to receive ADS-B messages, decode the ADS-B messages to retrieve flight information, and then publishes MQTT messages with flight information in the JSON payload over to IoT Platform. In effect, we are diluting the most important aspect of this project if we say that it is just Correlating Flight and Weather Data in Augmented Reality. Please contact me if you have any questions about this.


This repository contains instructions to build modern Cloud-based Air Traffic Control using IBM Bluemix.

The arrows on some of the lines in the diagram need to be switched. Once again, it would be better to schedule a meeting to talk about these things.

The explanation of steps in AR-steps.png is way off. It would be better to have a meeting to talk about these steps so that they can be accurate.
