FlightLogger has released its seventh major update of the year to 130 partners, which includes an intelligent integration to automatically retrieve and store flight tracks. With this integration, users can view and download from inside the FlightLogger platform to open in services like Google Earth. This is the result of a new cooperation with AirNav RadarBox, an online provider of real-time aircraft and flight information.
The new feature addition from FlightLogger takes advantage of the fact that ADS-B flight tracking data is becoming a requirement for aircraft across the world. AirNav RadarBox uses the ADS-B data coming from aircraft to monitor and display flight data via a network of more than 20,000 data feeders, and that’s what makes it interesting for flight training organizations and for FlightLogger.
“By tapping into the flight data from AirNav RadarBox and making it available inside the FlightLogger platform, our partners can dispose expensive aircraft tracking systems that otherwise needed to be installed in their aircraft to produce this kind of tracking, and simply make use of what’s already equipped on most aircraft”, explains FlightLogger CEO Kenneth Jeppesen. “With the new added features, relevant aircraft flight tracks are automatically retrieved from AirNav RadarBox and stored within our partners’ FlightLogger platform. This way instructors and students can review flight paths and other data already at debriefing.”
The new integration comes as a natural next step following one of FlightLogger’s latest additions, an in-app departure/arrival board customised for flight training which partners can display on internal info screens or access on their own device. The departure/arrival board already features one-click access to real-time monitoring of live flights, and the option to now retrieve and store flight tracks automatically inside the FlightLogger platform ensures that historical flight tracks are still available months and years later.
According to Kenneth Jeppesen, FlightLogger still have plans for more: “We are working on some additional features to make the AirNav RadarBox integration even more valuable for our partners, but we have other exciting features in the pipeline as well. I can’t say anything right now, other than we look forward to share some pretty exciting news quite soon.”
