Android app that visualizes the aircraft traffic from The Open Glider Network project (OGN) on a map.
OGN can receive signals from gliders, tow planes, helicopters, etc.
This app is a flight radar for small aircraft with FLARM equipment.
The decoded signals can be used with apps like XCSoar on TCP port 4353.
Current version: 1.4.4
