location

  • Periodic performance summary for a receiver station. Created at regular intervals (e.g. hourly or daily).

  • A batch of aircraft observations from a single receiver covering a configurable time window (default 60 seconds). Contains a manifest of observed aircraft and blobbed telemetry data.

  • A weather station. One account may own many stations. A station that physically relocates MUST be retired (status: retired) and a new station record created, so historical observations stay tied to the site where they were measured.

  • A captured aircraft datalink message (ACARS, VDL2, or HFDL). These are low-volume, high-value records that represent individual communications between aircraft and ground stations.

  • A real-time aircraft state update, broadcast via at.adsb.broadcast.subscribeEvents. Ephemeral — not written to a PDS.
