Pre Requisites for tracking

Things you need to install, to track planes and stats:

• READSB (will connect to your local USB RTLSDR or a network connection)

SHARING (is caring)

• Flightradar
• adsbexchange.com
• Planefinder
• Flightaware

Flightradar

Sharing with flightradar is a must in my eyes, best mobile plattform, you will get a free business subscription in exchange for your data.

sudo bash -c "$(wget -O - https://repo-feed.flightradar24.com/install_fr24_rpi.sh)"

Documentation: https://www.flightradar24.com/share-your-data

adsbexchange.com

Another must in my eyes, in exchange you will get mlat data, and with that the chance to see the small portion of general aviation flights on your map, which else only show up in the list.

For sharing data:

wget -O /tmp/axfeed.sh https://adsbexchange.com/feed.sh
sudo bash /tmp/axfeed.sh

For stats:

wget -O /tmp/axstats.sh https://adsbexchange.com/stats.sh
sudo bash /tmp/axstats.sh

DOCKER

Yes, most of the repos are available as docker image, no idea, never used them, but on the to do list.
