OpenSky Network API

Documentationhttps://openskynetwork.github.io/opensky-api/rest.html

Description

Retrieve state vectors, flights, and tracks for the whole network, a particular sensor, or a specific aircraft. Rate limits apply for certain API calls, and restrictions vary for anonymous and OpenSky users.

What can you use it for?

Build a live flight map, aircraft tracker, or flight-history visualizer using real ADS‑B data. You can query global or area state vectors, individual aircraft tracks, and historical flights. It’s great for demos, research, or hobby projects; note anonymous calls are limited and heavy or operational use needs a license. Authentication uses OAuth2 and the API enforces credit quotas to prevent abuse.
