Altitude #9

Open amoshalava opened 3 years ago

amoshalava commented 3 years ago

With TAK now allowing 3D viewing of COTS I have done a streaming KML with this type functionality. Looking through this code it looks like it does LAT an LONG but not ALT. is that something you can add? we would really like to implement this way with our TAK server as we would not have to setup each user with a streaming KML. Also is it possible to get the icon to point in the direction that the aircraft is traveling?

This python app does include altitude from the adsbexchange API. It may be an issue with your converter to KML? The CoT generated for each event does have the ground track included, which displays in TAK as a small triangle tick mark located around the icon as a pointer in the direction of the traffic's ground track. Can you post a screenshot showing that this is missing?
