Flightradar24.com shows live aircraft traffic in the airspace above Europe. Aircrafts equipped with an ADS-B transponder are visible on the map.
A proposito di ADS-B
- Australia - Australia is the first country with full, nationwide ADS-B coverage. There are 57 ground stations operating at 28 sites.[2]
- Canada - Canada commissioned operational use of ADS-B in 2009 and is now using it to provide coverage of its northern airspace around Hudson Bay, most of which currently has no radar coverage. The service is also being extended to cover some oceanic areas off the east coast of Canada and Greenland. The service is expected to be later extended to cover the rest of the Canadian Arctic, and to the rest of Canada.[14][15]
- China - An American Company, ADS-B Technologies created one of the largest and most successful ADS-B system in the world (an 8 station, 350+ aircraft network that spans more than 1,200 nm across Central China). This was also the first UAT installation outside the U.S.. As of March, 2009, more than 1.2M incident/failure free flight hours have been flown with these ADS-B systems.
- Sweden - LFV Group in Sweden has implemented a nationwide ADS-B network with 12 ground stations. Installation commenced during spring 2006, and the network was fully (technically) operational in 2007. An ADS-B supported system is planned for operational usage in Kiruna during spring 2009. Based on the VDL Mode 4 standards, the network of ground stations can support services for ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B, GNS-B (DGNSS augmentation) and Point-to-Point communication, allowing aircraft equipped with VDL 4-compliant transceivers to lower fuel consumption and reduce flight times.[citation needed]

- Cargo Airline Association - Cargo carriers, notably United Parcel Service (UPS).[1] They operate at their hub airports operate largely at night. Much of the benefit to these carriers is envisioned through merging and spacing the arriving and departing traffic to a more manageable flow. More environmentally friendly and efficient area navigation (RNAV) descent profiles, combined with CDTI, may allow crews to eventually aid controllers with assisted visual acquisition of traffic and limited cockpit-based separation of aircraft. The benefits to the carrier are fuel and time efficiencies associated with idle descent and shorter traffic patterns than typical radar vectoring allows.[citation needed]
- Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University - ERAU has equipped their training aircraft at its two main campuses in Florida and Arizona with UAT ADS-B capability as a situational safety enhancement. The University has been doing this since May 2003, making it the first use in general aviation.[16] With the addition of the G1000 to their fleet in 2006, ERAU became the first fleet to combine a glass cockpit with ADS-B.[17]
- University of North Dakota - UND has received an FAA grant to test ADS-B, and has begun to outfit their Piper Warrior fleet with an ADS-B package.[18]
