There's something a little off about the projection logic when you drop into the Leaflet view, you'll notice that when you pan around after zooming the planes shift their location.
When you zoom in to the street map level, the planes are practically invisible with their color and thin borders. Pretty neat though, that's a lot to load and keep smooth.
Why is there almost no traffic in places like South America (other than Brazil) and Africa? Data set or reality? Not much in China/Russia either.
The current data is from OpenSky, mainly north america and EU.

Very cool demo though!
Need to check my calculations. Thanks for noticing it.
Wow. I won't give you a feature request :) just appreciation.
It really puts into perspective the magnitude of air traffic when you have this visualization.
Impressive. The planes should probably scale up a bit as you zoom though, they become impossible to spot.
I'm surprised all the flights in the world can be represented in a <500KB api call

Could probably extrapolate positions based on heading and speed, to do some fake "real time" positions.
It render extremely fast on my side (firefox, macOS). Which UI stack are you using? Is it egui?
It's mainly eGui + WebGPU
Can you add pinch zoom?
Currently I developed this for desktop browser, so it might not work well on mobile. But I will improve and update it.
You should be able to do pinch zoom support for laptops with a trackpad, too. I think it would be
window.addEventListener('wheel', ... )
Fantastic work!
