sbs1
====

[](#sbs1)

This project provides simple library for decoding [ADSB](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_dependent_surveillance_%E2%80%93_broadcast) information from SBS-1 format.

[SBS1 format](http://woodair.net/sbs/article/barebones42_socket_data.htm) is a CSV format produced by ADSB decoders.

This package enables decoding raw messages, and generating messages from a 'stream' type (a file handle or socket).

The software can decode messages produced on port 30003 by dump1090 (started with the `--net` flag). There are many cheap (~10$) devices that can be used for this.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require afk11/sbs1

```

Examples
--------

[](#examples)

### Parse raw messages

[](#parse-raw-messages)

[parsing\_messages.php](./example/parsing_messages.php)

### Stream from file

[](#stream-from-file)

[stream\_from\_file.php](./example/stream_from_file.php)

### Stream from Socket

[](#stream-from-socket)

This example is missing, but it's essentially a one line difference to stream\_from\_file.php.

Replace the line calling readFile with a call to readTcpStream:

```
-foreach ($streamReader->readFile($lineReader, $file) as $line) {
+foreach ($streamReader->readTcpStream($lineReader, "127.0.0.1", 30003) as $line) {

```
