Here is a list of, sometimes, less significant changes that I apply to suit my personal preferences

  • Reduced width of aircraft trails - planeObject.js - Ref: AK9A

  • Add USAF, RAF and IOM flags - flag.js flags-tiny/ - Ref: AK9B

  • Simplistic (height) colours - planeObject.js - Ref: AK9C

  • Highlighting 'interesting' flights - planeObject.j - Ref: AK9D

  • Provide extra aircraft data - planeObject.js (/db/ source - see https://github.com/alkissack/Dump1090-OpenLayers3-html/wiki/F.-%5Cdb%5C) - Ref: AK9E

  • HTML table options and promoting a/c of interest - replacement html file: index.html (old file: base-index.html) used for table options (see config.js) , style.js, script.js - Ref: AK9F

  • Allow selection of all planes of interest - index.html (old file: base-index.html) - Ref: AK9G

  • Alternate generic icon (aka radar blip) - markers.js - Ref: AK9H

  • Allow more than one, selectively, aircraft to be selected. script.js - Ref: AK9S Click multiple aircraft to select. To remove the large data panel from teh latest selected aircraft, click the aircraft again.

  • Show a more realistic range ring (as layer) form my QTH. This is based on actual aircraft seen - Ref: AK9T

  • Add a personal data layer from local mySql server - Ref: AK9U This has no use outside of my LAN, but the code illustrates how to query a mySql database for potentially other purposes. Also review folder \sql\ for other examples.

  • Smaller site identifier and narrower range rings- script.js - Ref: AK9V

  • Remove title and version from pane - script.js - Ref: AK9W

  • Plane count BEFORE title in browser - script.js - Ref: AK9X

  • Reduce 'console' logging - Ref: AK9Y

  • Additional aircraft variables for various mod's - planeObject.js - Ref: AK9Z
