WIP: Stratux with AIS capability #141

Closed rvt closed 3 years ago

rvt commented 3 years ago

This PR add's the capability to show AIS (Vessel traffic) on Stratux.

The usecase for this was :

Photographer friend that can easily identify boats out of sea out of cell reception
If you are out of sea, and do have issues... you could find a boat....

Items on the todo are:

Add AIS on the help page
Code cleanup in ais.go
Do we need to deal with GDL/NMEA messages on EFB, since I do not have an EFB I did not test this yet. Please advice.

It currently has been tested with a dataset of 80K AIS message.

Note:

Only boats in a radius of 150Km are shown
I had to rewrite a portion of the js/html to ensure that colours in traffic and in map are matching and did my upmost best to ensure for aircrafts the colors are the same, please check :)
