Research projet @ Polytechnique Montreal made by Missipsa M'Hamed Annane, Srishti Rawal and Philippe Doyon-Poulin.
This project is meant to simplify and strengthen the communication between the ATC and the Pilot. We used the Global Operational Data Link Document (GOLD), by following the current communication protocol. It is heavily focused on ground operations. It can handle multiple pilots connection (having each one their context), and multiple ATCs, that have a shared context (imagine sharing a doc and both working on it).
The goal is to maximize communication efficiency while keeping a simple of usage interface. This project contains both the Pilot and the ATC interface communicating through one server.
Pilot Front-End : HTML/ CSS/ JS
ATC Front-End : Angular/ TS/ SCSS
Backend : Flask server with HTTP and WS integration for real-time communication.
Ingescape : To communicate with our flight simulator X-Plane, so we can really simulate the usage of the app on a flight. It works with WS, but they abstract the coding out of it. It is only needed to simulate the whole environment, but can work without it.
Enjoy !

If you find it useful, or want to contribute, you can always write a message!
4 - In parallel, the ATC can render the clearance on the map, and toggle if they want to see this pilots clearance or not.
- Be aware of the logging system, it will write on a log at every main event [connections, requests, errors, and so on]. Knowing that theres a new connection at each WS client-side [auth is based on sid], this could add up to multiple useless files.
The logging system is a hidden festure [a true gem] that the client will never perceive. It is such a main service on the backend, as for development, debugging, scalability, abstraction, ... that never sees the light. One global logger is definitely needed.
