Flight tracker

A .NET Windows application that illustrates using the ArcGIS Maps SDK for .NET to track air traffic.

The details of the app are described in the blog article Create real-time apps with ArcGIS Maps SDKs for Native Apps.

To get started:

1. Clone this repository to your local machine.
2. Open the Visual Studio project (Flights.csproj).
   • The required NuGet packages will be restored, including ArcGIS Maps SDK for .NET.
3. Add an API key on line 22 of App.xaml.cs.
   • Visit developers.arcgis.com to sign up for a free ArcGIS Developer account and to receive an API key.
4. Update line 40 of MainWindow.xaml.cs with a URL to a stream service that provides data from FlightAware.
   • You can use another stream service, but will likely have to update field names and other details for the app to work as expected.
   • You may be able to find services to use by searching arcgis.com for FlightAware or GeoEvent stream services to use.
