=== Streaming FlightGear data to a Jupyter Notebook === | |||
This is a demo of streaming live data from Flightgear to a Jupyter notebook: | |||

The code listens to the websocket, converts it to pandas time series objects, and then updates some plots. | |||
This could be useful for aircraft developers trying to analye the performance of their aircraft. Also, for a lot of good aircraft, the information for Vx, Vy, best glide speed etc are missing, maybe this could become a good way to benchmark these parameters.<ref>{{cite web | |||

The github url as well: [https://github.com/akloster/jupyter-flightgear https://github.com/akloster/jupyter-flightgear] | |||
The instructions are in the Readme and the notebook file. | |||
And yes, the combination of Python, Jupyter, Pandas, Matplotlib and Bokeh beats GNUPlot/csv by several orders of magnitude<ref>{{cite web | |||
