Feature Request: Display FIS/B data such as Nexrad weather #9

Open sup4rl33thax0r opened 5 years ago

sup4rl33thax0r commented 5 years ago

Would like to see FIS/B data like Nexrad weather, METAR, TAF, Winds Aloft, PIREPs, TFRs, NOTAMs, et cetera. In addition to watching planes deviate around WX, it would also be interesting to see PIREPs to hear what's going on in the cockpit. Thanks!

Edit: Should add that though this obviously isn't coming through Dump1090 or the like, could add the ability to talk to Stratux which does provide all the relevant info.

See here: https://github.com/cyoung/stratux/blob/master/notes/app-vendor-integration.md

This is not just coming from Stratux. This comes UAT decoding and will only be received if line of sight to at 978 tower, so not very useful for most users.

Additionally, All this information can be integrated from public web services using the custom content plugin without the need to tax VRS or expand the code base further.
