## Description

Receives ADSB traffic information via WiFi from a GDL90 source such as Stratux or SkyEcho.<br>Traffic can be displayed on a map, and/or relayed via a network port to other apps on the same device.<br><br>If you&#39;re a glider pilot using XCSoar on an Android device, this app will allow you to stream<br>SkyEcho traffic data and GPS location to XCSoar. Since XCSoar does not natively read GDL90 format<br>data, TraffiX receives data from a SkyEcho or other GDL90 source and converts it to FLARM format,<br>then retransmits this via a UDP port.<br><br>Then simply setting one of XCSoar&#39;s input devices to UDP, port 4353 and FLARM decoding will<br>result in ADSB traffic being displayed inside XCSoar just like FLARM traffic.<br><br>TraffiX will remain running in the background when XCSoar is active.<br><br>For setup instructions see the help page inside the app, or https://www.control-j.com/TraffiX
