Scrape the wspr database for telemetry from high altitude balloons. Decode the telemetry and post this to sondehub

wspr2sondehub

wspr2sondehub is a simple program written in PHP to scrape the wspr database every 5 minutes for telemetry from High Altitude Balloons, decode this telemetry, log the telemetry in a local file and post the telemetry on amateur.sondehub.org It is still very, very basic but it runs.

The program follows the protocol as described at: https://www.qrp-labs.com/flights/s4#protocol Currently I use it for my own balloons.

The program is written in PHP and can be installed on almost any computer.

Feel free to improve and use this program.

php

You can find many webpages on how to install PHP on Windows and Unix.

Be sure that in your phpi.ini file, in the [curl] section, curl.cainfo points to the cacert.pem file that is a part of this repository. Windows example: curl.cainfo ="C:\php\cacert.pem"

And that the "curl" extension is enabled. Windows Example: extension=curl

settings

First open the settings.php file and change the settings. This is very important.

Run the program

Run the program from the command line: php wspr2sondehub
