Clarification regarding API Terms was created by baldoius

Hi all,

I am planning to integrate the route endpoint of the API into tar1090 as a pull request. (see discussion on github here )
As far as I understand the terms, this would be allowed iff a reference to opensky is made. Can somebody confirm that?
As tar1090 might also be used by commercialized services (or services with ads, such as globe.adsbexchange.com/), route displaying wouldn't be activated by default but an option to be set explicitly by the user.

Thanks for clarification
Cheers,
Dario

Hi Baldoius,

Thanks for the question. I'm afraid this is not possible. This particular end point is not in the API documentation for a reason. It is purely for the OpenSky Explorer and for scientific use (e.g. our Covid datasets) as cleared with the numerous sources providing the data.
