#dumpvdl2 #acars decoder was updated with OHMA messages.
They are heavy on the #JSON and a bit tricky to humanly read when decoded.
A website user prodded me to make them a bit clearer to read.
Here is my first pass at making a JSON pretty-print for the @nodered dashboard.
Looking forward to more than just the 737 Max aircraft including this data.
Helps to have a giant monitor.... -
I'm starting to update all my VDL #ACARS stations to the latest #dumpvdl2 build (2.3.0)
You must also update #libacars for this new version.
Building both from source is the go.
Required versions are: dumpvdl2 2.3.0 (libacars 2.2.0)Of course the big reason to do the update is to decode the OHMA messages from #Boeing #737MAX aircraft.
I see some routing info in there which is always nice.Note: Im getting invalid #JSON via my #nodered. Looking into it.

Testing some #javascript that loops through the JSON output from #dumpvdl2 and picks any key:value pairs that has lat/lon in them.
Then it reformats that data to #BaseStation format and sends it to #VRS (Virtual Radar Server).
The plan is to cross reference any aircraft with the same ICAO and is transmitting #ADSB data, thus highlight mostly military and bizjets that are trying to run quiet.
