VC Bird Receiver Diagnostics ← live map movements log

Live data straight off the receiver — refreshes every 2 s. Per-aircraft rows show how many messages we received from each aircraft in the last 60 s; if a row is near zero, that aircraft has weak coverage at the antenna, not a software bug.

Coverage & Blind Spots

good reception intermittent blind spot runway/taxiway/apron outlines from OSM
Each cell's color is the gap/(received+gap) ratio for that ~11 m square (or ~111 m in region scope). Gaps come from track segments where consecutive fixes are 4–60 s apart: the aircraft really was somewhere on that line, and we missed it. Hover any cell for raw counts.
