FreeTAKServer-Simulator

Tool for Simulating moving objects in ATAK

GPX

This tool currently will take a gpx file you have generated of a route and "play" it into ATAK. Taking the data in from the gpx file and filling in gaps where there may not be any location data between 2 points to allow for fluid movement in ATAK at a given speed.

You can also use the GPX class to:

• Mimic a crowd/group following the same gpx file (all offset slightly to look realistic)

Example

from ftssim import gpx

player = gpx.GpxPlayer('192.168.3.2', 'test_file.gpx', "A1_Walk", speed_kph=5, max_time_step_secs=4)
player.play_gpx()

Wandering

Given a starting point and a few extra parameters this tool will make an object wander aimlessly in straight lines then change direction (if you want to have an object just head in one straight line set total_distance and distance_between_change to the same number)

You can also use the Wonder class to make an object:

• Loiter in the area (while not remain static)
• Circle a point

Example

from ftssim import wander

wanderer = wander.Wander('192.168.3.2', total_distance_km=2, distance_between_change=1, callsign="lost_soul", speed_kph=5,
                         max_time_step_secs=4, start_lat=38.897125, start_lon=-77.036255)
# Wonder
wanderer.start_wandering()

# Loiter in an the area for 5 minutes 
wanderer.loiter_for_time(300)

# Circle anti-clockwise around the point in a 50 meter radius 
wanderer.circle_point(50, clockwise=False)
