ardfmap

Amateur radio direction finding mapping system

A system designed for use with electronic foxhunting events and balloon chases.

Getting started

Install Flask (pip install flask).

Start the server by double clicking the server.py (or python server.py in a

terminal.

Visit http://localhost:8083 in your web browser.

Architecture

Server

The server component is now dependant on the "Flask" Python library which is a microframework for Python based on Werkzeug, Jinja 2 and good intentions. In addition to hosting the web client it provides access to the database via a REST-style API.

At the moment it stores the data in a SQLite database to avoid the need of installing database server like Postgres.

This design lends itself to making it easy to run it on the computers in car during the hunts/chases. On the long term roadmap the plan is to also provide a website that can be hosted on a public facing webserver (i.e through Apache/lighttpd/ngnix/Cherokee) which can use Postgres the database backend instead of SQLite.

Client

Two clients are provided at this time, the web interface which utelises the Leaflet to provide an interactive client for humans in their web browser and a CLI/API client for communicating with the server for developing specialised agents.
