Range Outline with Altitude-Based Gradient Visualization
This PR adds a new Range Outline feature that visualizes the maximum detection range of your ADS-B receiver across all bearings (0-359°), with
altitude-based color gradients showing your coverage profile.
What it does
Visual Example
The outline starts as a small circle at your receiver location and gradually expands as aircraft are detected. Each segment is colored according to the
altitude of the aircraft at maximum range for that bearing:
Configuration
New command-line option:
--range-outline-retention <hours># Default: 24 hoursExample:
./dump1090 --lat 42.67 --lon -113.87 --range-outline-retention 48UI Controls
