This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of websites). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Virtual Radar Server (VRS) is an open source, cross-platform web server based on the .NET framework that plots aircraft positions from internet or serial-connected ADS-B receivers.[1][2][3]
Usage edit
VRS can be run on Windows using the Microsoft-provided .NET runtime, or on Linux or MacOS using Mono.[4] VRS can receive data via an internet or serial connection in a variety of formats, allowing it to interact with many ADS-B receivers and decoders. This includes most software-defined radio ADS-B decoders, such as ADSB#,[5] PingUSB,[6] RTL1090,[7] and dump1090.[8]
It also supports flight simulators, namely X-Plane, Flight Simulator X, and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020.[9] Plugins for it can be developed for it using Visual Studio.[10]
Data sources edit
VRS uses the OpenStreetMap or Google Maps APIs for base map data and PlaneBase for aircraft lookup.[11] Other standing data pertaining to aircraft, routes, airlines, and airports is collected and maintained via email contact, Github issues, or its standing data maintenance page.[12]
