Flight Viz

Flight Viz presents a real‑time visualization of global air traffic on an interactive three‑dimensional globe rendered in a web browser. It continuously plots more than ten thousand active flights, updating their positions, speed, altitude and route as the data streams in. Users can locate a specific aircraft by entering its flight number, and the map will highlight that flight’s current location and trajectory.

In addition to the globe view, the service offers airport departure and arrival boards, showing scheduled and actual times for flights at supported airports. A weather radar overlay can be toggled to display current meteorological conditions that may affect flight paths, and delay information is displayed alongside each flight’s details. Aircraft type, route, and other metadata are also accessible for each tracked flight.

The platform is freely accessible without requiring user registration, and it is intended for anyone interested in monitoring live air traffic, such as aviation enthusiasts, travelers checking flight status, or casual observers of global flight patterns. The implementation is experimental, focusing on delivering a visual, data‑rich experience directly in the browser.
