Aircraft data: ADSB.lol · ODbL 1.0 · Reported geographic positions; no local ADS-B receiver. Trails use received coordinates only.
Aircraft settings & separate alerts
Width is miles across, not radius. Alerts require BOTH horizontal distance within the alert radius AND reported barometric altitude inside the minimum/maximum band. Map width is independent. Unknown altitude/position or stale data cannot trigger alerts. Altitude is not height above the detector. Aircraft alerts are off by default. When enabled, the feed sends the selected GPS/manual coordinates to ADSB.lol. Fresh positions and a fresh detector origin are required unless saved-GPS alerts are explicitly allowed.
