Description : Asynchronous client for accessing OpenSky API for global aircraft data
This library provides an asynchronous interface for accessing the OpenSky
Network's API, enabling users to retrieve data about aircraft around the
world. By connecting to the OpenSky API, the library facilitates the retrieval
of information about flight states, including position, speed, and altitude of
aircraft in real-time. The data is derived from a collaborative effort
gathered from a network of sensors worldwide, offering insights into air
traffic as it happens. It connects directly to the OpenSky Network to pull
data about aircraft within specified parameters, including geographical
regions and altitude boundaries. This capability supports various
applications, such as monitoring overhead air traffic in a defined area or
integrating this data into larger systems to trigger operations based on
aircraft movements.
This library is a dependancy of Home Assistant, the Python smart home platform.
I plan to maintain it as part of the Home Assistant team.
