This page shows a live sky plot, a map centered on your location, and a data overview.
Polar plot: the outer ring is the horizon and the center is the zenith (directly above your position). Angles around the ring are azimuth bearings (N, E, S, W); dashed paths show Sun/Moon trajectories. Dots show current Sun/Moon positions, and time ticks label hourly positions along the paths. Aircraft positions are shown as dots on the polar plot. As long as an aircraft is withing the selected radius, its past trajectory is shown as a solid line. Furthermore, a predicted trajectory is shown as a dashed line, based on the last 3 positions. After the aircraft has left the selected radius, the trajectory history remains visible as a grey line. Its visibility can be toggled in the settings panel.
Map: aircraft markers show nearby traffic within the selected radius; zooming/panning changes the radius. Use the “Fix position and scale” checkbox to lock the map view and prevent changes.
Data overview: the table lists aircraft callsign, type, altitude, speed, heading, bearing/angle from you, and min distances to Sun/Moon.
Sun/Moon boxes show current bearing (degrees + compass) and altitude, plus rise/set times.
Use automatic or manual location, and adjust settings to tune alerts and visibility.
