We have an API available so third-party consumers can retrieve telemetry data from our system
The Spidertracks Automated Flight Following (AFF) API enables users to share telemetry data with third party systems. The intended purpose is to provide live location data and other telemetry data (if available). This API is based on the de-facto global standard that has been adopted for Automated Flight Following. This was first developed by the USDA Forest Service and the specification is maintained at www.aff.gov.
To be able to access data you will need to be registered as an API consumer and create a consumer account. Spidertracks reserves the right to approve and monitor all API consumer accounts. You can apply to to become a consumer by filling in the API request form.

The following guide covers integrating with the spidertracks API / AFF feed. The data in the spidertracks AFF response, how to query the feed, and how to setup an AFF feed in the spidertracks website are all covered. Examples of querying the feed, including code, requests, and responses are all provided.
