This JavaScript code is a plugin for the ADSB aircraft tracking Virtual Radar Server software. The Javascript files need to be used with the Virtual Radar Server Custom Content plugin.
This repo brings together and updates several scripts (EndOfHead.html and EndOfBody.html) written by others as well as adds new scripts (Scale.html and Fullscreen.html)
These two files work in tandem to insert a icon with pop up at the bottom left of the map and allows the user to select airspace layers, weather layers and UK specific overlays which will be added to the base Leaflet map used in VRS.
Users will need to sign up for an Open Weather 1.0 API key and also an OpenAIP Key. These keys need to be inserted at lines 20 & 21 of EndOfBody.html. Ensure that the ' ' are kept.
Adds a full screen button to the VRS map under the zoom +/- buttons and moves the +/- buttons to the top right of the screen.
Adds a distance scale next to the VRS menu in the top left of the map
Put the HTML files in the required folder for the Custom Content plugin as per Custom Content plugin instructions and the entire contents of Put these files in VRS root folder folder into the root folder referenced by the Custom Content plugin and then set up the files injections as per the bottom 4 lines in the below image:
Defaults to GB airports etc. If you wish to change to airports for your country remove the country code e.g. DE from the end of the .geojson files in the Put these files in VRS root folder before placing them in the root folder for your VRS
