OzRunways Briefing





Live Traffic



OzRunways is the first and only EFB in the world to display live traffic on the iPad. With OzRunways you can:
   * View live traffic on the map
   * Tap to enlarge and display the flight plans of nearby traffic
* Share and view tracks on <http://ozrunways.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=278909621e741473665c63b33&id=32881403fa&e=0a4d444ea0>tx.ozrunways.com


Viewing Traffic



When aircraft are airborne and running OzRunways, they will participate in the OzRunways traffic network. Your position and flight plan are sent in a special packet format specially designed by OzRunways to work with maximum speed and reliability in even the poorest network conditions. The data use is tiny at only 350kb per hour.
[]

Other aircraft appear as blue circles. The outer pointer is the GPS track. The inner number is relative altitude. For example this aircraft is 2100 ft above you tracking south east.
[]

Traffic with no callsign set appear as 'Unknown'. You can set your callsign in OzRunways → Settings → Traffic or by assigning an aircraft to your flight plan.


View live traffic on the web



The new Share button presents a variety of social media options. These help your SAR person, friends and family to follow your flight in real time or to download a KML track after you land (or go missing). These options appear when you install Facebook, Twitter and set up your email and Message apps.
[]

The new traffic icon at the top of the map screen toggles the blue traffic icons from appearing on the map. You will continue to send your position with this disabled.
