A cheap Nexus temperature and humidity sensor that hangs outside,
als has an inside box with diplay 


Using:
 rtl_433 -p 40 -R19 | weather sensor_to_xgpspc;

The -p is the frequency correction for the RTL stick.

For plane traffic I use dump1090, from this script:

raspberrypi: # cat /usr/local/send_planes_to_xgpspc
#!/bin/bash
#echo "Usage: send_planes_to_xgpspc device_number"
#echo "default device_number is 0"

if [ "$1" == "" ]
 then
  let device_number=0
 else
  device_number="$1"
 fi

#echo "device_number=$device_number"

#dump1090 --metric --interactive | grep -v  -e ---- -e Flight | awk '// { printf "%s %s %sm %skm/h %sN %sE\n", $1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $6}' | tee planes13.log | netcat -u 192.168.178.73 1079

#dump1090 --metric --interactive | grep -v  -e ---- -e Flight | awk '// { printf "%s %s %sm %skm/h %s %s\n", $1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $6}' | tee /root/planes.log | netcat -u 192.168.178.73 1079

dump1090 --device-index $device_number --metric --interactive | \
grep -v  -e ---- -e Flight | \
awk '// { printf "%s %s %sm %skm/h %s %s\n", $1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $6}' | \
tee /dev/stderr | \
netcat -u 192.168.178.73 1079

=================================

This sends the planes info to Raspbery with IP address 192.168.178.73 that runs 'xgpspc' using netcat

netcat is cool for communication between ethernet connected stuff
Some have multitasking operating systems ..  I also use computers for several tasks. :-)
Easy with those cheap Raspberries.

For air pressure I use a chip that is mounted on a raspi 'hat' I build,
that hat also holds compass and attitude chips:
