Include Aircraft Registration in InfluxDB export? #115

Open tejasitraj opened 2 years ago

tejasitraj commented 2 years ago

Hi! Would it be possible to add a tag for aircraft's registration (SE-RPK, for example) when sending data over to InfluxDB? Thanks!

The data that gets sent to InfluxDB is effectively the SBS JSON, interpreted by Telegraf.

The JSON details for each aircraft look like this:

{"Sig":134,"Icao":"7C4203","Alt":1350,"GAlt":1325,"InHg":29.80,"TAlt":3008,"Call":"VOZ9264 ","Lat":-31.873619,"Long":115.984572,"PosTime":1675920958167,"Mlat":false,"Tisb":false,"Spd":130,"SpdTyp":0,"Trak":193,"TrkH":false,"Sqk":"3641","Vsi":-704,"VsiT":1,"Gnd":false,"Trt":3,"Cmsgs":11505}

As you can see, there's no track information provided.

Furthermore, looking at the /run/readsb/aircraft.pb file, the information isn't captured here either.

In order to implement this, we'd need to re-write exporting the flight data to InfluxDB, and have something look up the ICAO/Callsign against a route database.

I'll mark this as help-wanted. And will happily accept PRs for this.
