The Python ADS-B/Mode-S Decoder
===============================
PyModeS is a Python library designed to decode Mode-S (including ADS-B) message. It can be imported to your python project or used as a standalone tool to view and save live traffic data.
This is a project created by Junzi Sun, who works at `TU Delft <https://www.tudelft.nl/en/>`_, `Aerospace Engineering Faculty <https://www.tudelft.nl/en/ae/>`_, `CNS/ATM research group <http://cs.lr.tudelft.nl/atm/>`_. It is supported by many `contributors <https://github.com/junzis/pyModeS/graphs/contributors>`_ from different institutions.
Introduction
------------
pyModeS supports the decoding of following types of messages:
- DF4 / DF20: Altitude code
- DF5 / DF21: Identity code (squawk code)
- DF17 / DF18: Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B)
- TC=1-4 / BDS 0,8: Aircraft identification and category
- TC=5-8 / BDS 0,6: Surface position
- TC=9-18 / BDS 0,5: Airborne position
- TC=19 / BDS 0,9: Airborne velocity
- TC=28 / BDS 6,1: Airborne status [to be implemented]
- TC=29 / BDS 6,2: Target state and status information [to be implemented]
- TC=31 / BDS 6,5: Aircraft operational status [to be implemented]
- DF20 / DF21: Mode-S Comm-B messages
- BDS 1,0: Data link capability report
- BDS 1,7: Common usage GICB capability report
- BDS 2,0: Aircraft identification
- BDS 3,0: ACAS active resolution advisory
- BDS 4,0: Selected vertical intention
- BDS 4,4: Meteorological routine air report (experimental)
- BDS 4,5: Meteorological hazard report (experimental)
- BDS 5,0: Track and turn report
- BDS 6,0: Heading and speed report

- TC=29 / BDS 6,2: Target state and status information [to be implemented]
- TC=31 / BDS 6,5: Aircraft operational status [to be implemented]
**DF20 / DF21: Mode-S Comm-B replies**
- BDS 1,0: Data link capability report
- BDS 1,7: Common usage GICB capability report
