Add additional plane data to gmap

j0nson commented 9 years ago

Added the manufacturer, model, and owner of aircraft to the GMAP when using BasicAircraftLookup.sqb, and added the ability to parse BaseStation.sqb, which adds a huge number of additional ICAOs. The default is to use BasicAircraftLookup.sqb, additional work by the user needs to be done to utilize BaseStation.sqb, including manually downloading the database from http://planebase.biz/bstnsqb and altering the cron update script to use the database.

The new DB update script must be run before testing this patch:

/usr/share/dump1090-mutability/vrs-basicaircraft-to-json.py /var/cache/dump1090-mutability/sqb/BasicAircraftLookup.sqb /var/cache/dump1090-mutability/db/

Excellent. I'll be testing this on my dev-pi this evening.

I believe this error was caused by this PR:

  File "./debian/dump1090-mutability/usr/share/dump1090-mutability/vrs-basicaircraft-to-json.py", line 20
    if "BaseStation.sqb" in dbfile:
    ^

"Since September 2015 PlaneBase has no longer provided a freely available pre-populated SQB file to download.", unfortunately.
