Description

Hey,

I do not know if that is even possible, but I thought it would be a nice feature to have a live vatsim map on the EFB. That way I could easily check if relevant controllers are online and if there is any traffic in my area when I'm flying in uncontrolled areas. Right now I'm using https://map.vatsim.net/ on a second screen and I thought it would be very convenient to have that on the EFB. Perhaps this could even include a feature to notify me if another plane is getting close to me in uncontrolled areas.

Best, Mike

Was just looking into this one. Data seems to be available using https://map.vatsim.net/livedata/live.json but it looks like they forgot the do a correct CORS-Setting to that this one could be used at least within a browser. (CORS-Header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' missing)
