[Flightgear-devel] Plotting tool
Hi there, my name is Quint Mouthaan and I'm a student at the Technical University Delft in the Netherlands. I'm working a project in which we want to use FlightGear. The first thing we want to do is analyze some flight data. I saw a thread a little while ago about a tool that would be added to FlightGear that could be used to plot some data real time. Is that tool already available and if it is how can I obtain it? Thanks, Quint. ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel

We always like to hear about how FlightGear is being used. :-) FlightGear. The first thing we want to do is analyze some flight data. I assume you mean flight dynamics data? Roll, pitch, control surface deflections, etc.? I saw a thread a little while ago about a tool that would be added to FlightGear that could be used to plot some data real time. Is that tool already available and if it is how can I obtain it? David already answered this to some extent, but let me add something. JSBSim has pretty good data logging capabilities on its own if you are interested in only flight dynamics data. See the OUTPUT section (at bottom) of any JSBSim aircraft model for more information, e.g. X15.xml. JSBSim can output data to the console or to a file in .csv format (comma separated values). JSBSim can also write the data out to a socket. See FGOutput.cpp and FGfdmSocket.cpp for more information. The socket approach is nice for real time stuff. Flightgear may have some or all (and more) capabilities than this for logging, but perhaps not all of the desired flight dynamics data is available that way. Let us know if you need more information.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Plotting tool
Quint, There is Atlas (atlas.sourceforge.net), which connects to Glight Gear and plots the aircraft's track on a nice moving map display. It doesn't record any other data, but the source code will show you one way of getting data out of FlightGear. - Julian Quint Mouthaan wrote: FlightGear.

I would better if the socket approach use UDP broadcast socket to output data. UDP Broadcast socket would be faster than stream socket(TCP), and so we can add more than one other modules which want JSBSim data in real time. I am now using a module to receive JSBSim's output from socket and relay to other modules. and I am going to modify FGOutput/FGFDMSocket for UDP broadcast socket. ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel

Regarding the thread you are referring to - The code is presently with Alex Perry and he is in the process of integrating it into SimGear (?) and should be available soon.

Curt, did you decide whether you want to have it in the CVS tree for SimGear ? If you did and you still don't, let me know and I'll stick it into the CVS tree for FGATD on the SF account. ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel

I need to pick a less popular project to be involved in ... maybe a python to cobol translator written in prolog. Which reminds me ... does Mesa have support for AALIB yet ? Several people have been complaining about having to run FGFS under X and/or Windows. I know that AALIB supports both DOS and Linux consoles. 8-) ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
