SpaceTRC / Aviation
SpaceTRC Radar
Watch aircraft and space stations live on the same map. Tap an aircraft to see its altitude, speed and track in a cockpit-style panel. Use “The sky above me” to find the planes passing overhead right now.
How it works
From airliners to space stations: the whole sky
Live ADS-B
Position broadcasts from aircraft are collected every few seconds through the volunteer receiver network adsb.lol; in between, aircraft are moved smoothly along their speed and track.
Space layer
The positions of the ISS and Tiangong are computed in your browser from CelesTrak orbital data. The dashed line shows the next 50 minutes of ground track; the ring shows where the station is above the horizon.
The sky above me
If you share your location, the direction and elevation (in degrees) of aircraft above your horizon are calculated. Your location is used only in your browser and is never sent anywhere.
Limits
With free open data each query covers a ~460 km radius, so zoom in over very wide areas. Some aircraft (e.g. military) do not broadcast or are hidden. Data is for information only and must not be used for navigation.
