virtual plane-spotting

by mensi on Dec.28, 2007, under Google Maps

After virtual train-spotting, you can also do virtual plane-spotting. This Google hack was done as a diploma thesis at ZHAW. They use the transponder answers of planes near Zurich Airport to plot positions and display additional info. Imho very interesting stuff, although some may get overwhelmed by paranoia…

    Sehr interessantes Projekt ;) . Funktioniert sogar recht weit (Vorarlberg, Teile Tirols…). Hätte man gerade Lust, das bei sich selbst auch zu errichten :) ;) .
