Stands

A website which correlates aircraft on the VATSIM network with stands. Used for Scandinavian airports, but available to use on all airports with Open Street Map data available. Created by Daniel L. (1352906), based on the stand plugin from Alex Toff.

Installing

Docker Image

  • Pull the ghcr.io/vatsim-scandinavia/stands:latest Docker image
  • Add your environment variables
  • Bind the /public/data/ folder to a folder on your host machine to presist or modify the data
  • Start the container and setup your reverse proxy
  • Done!

You may also use the docker-compose file in the repository to get started, just tweak it to your liking.

Manual

  • To install the website, you require PHP 7.4 or greater.
  • When the content is installed, use composer install to install the required dependencies.
  • Make sure the /vendor/cobaltgrid/vatsim-stand-status/storage/data and vendor/skymeyer/vatsimphp/app/cache and vendor/skymeyer/vatsimphp/app/logs folders are writeable
  • Done!

Configuring

Environment variables

  • APP_TRACKING_SCRIPT - A script that will be inserted in the header of the page. This can be used to add your Google Analytics or similar scripts.

Data

By default the service will feed off data from Open Street Map. However, there's a possiblity to enrich and verify the airport data with manual data source in json.

First of all, make sure the data/index.json is updated with the airports you want to display in the menu. Then you can supply airport data with stands, coordinates and category of stands in data/<icao>.json for the airports of choice. See example airports that are already uploaded.

The stand category is shown in the tooltip when hovering mouse of a stand, but also to decide the size of the ring.

Tip: When dealing with overlapping stands like L/R-stands, the tooltip gets drawn in the same order as the file. You might want to draw the biggest stand first, then the overlaps so you can view them all.
