In espinielli/osn: Easy Access to OpenSkyNetwork Data via (SSH) Impala Session

osn

The goal of osn is to provide access to OpeSky Network historical data.

Installation

Once published, you will be able to install the released version of osn from CRAN with:

install.packages("osn")

And the development version from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("espinielli/osn")

Configuration

osn uses the logger package to write log messages to the console by default with the following log level standards:

TRACE writes the query results in the file `query_output.txt`.
DEBUG logs the Impala query being submitted.
INFO currently not used
WARN currently not used
ERROR currently not used
FATAL currently not used

If you want to update the default log level threshold, use the package name for the namespace argument of log_threshold from the logger package, e.g. to enable all log messages:

library(logger)
log_threshold(TRACE, namespace = 'osn')

Example

The following example shows how to retieve one hour worth of State Vector data within a bounding box[1] around Frankfurt airport for an hour interval, 09:00 - 10:00 UTC, on Jan 1, 2019:

library(osn)

# EDDF
state_vector(
  session,
  wef_time = "2019-01-01 09:00:00",
  til_time = "2019-01-01 10:00:00",
  bbox = c(7.553013, 49.378819,  9.585482, 50.688044),
  icao24 = NULL
)
