OPTION-1
Raspbian Lite image + dump1090-mutability + Data feeders


1 -  Download Raspbian Lite image (zip) on your Desktop/Laptop
  https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/

2 - Unzip downloaded file.

3 -  Insert microSD Card in your Desktop/Laptop's card slot (or use a card reader plugged into USB Port).

4 -  Write the unzipped Raspbian Lite image to microSD Card using "Wi32DiskImager" or "Etcher".

5 -  Enable SSH:
After image is written, in Windows Explorer, double click the drive letter of microSD card. This will open the folder /boot and show lots of files and some folders.

• Windows: In File Explorer, double click the drive letter of microSD card. This will open the folder /boot and show lots of files and some folders. Right click in /boot folder, and create a new blank file named ssh or ssh.txt
  
  
• Mac: Open terminal and give following command
  touch /Volumes/boot/ssh
  

6 -  Enable Wifi on first boot:
Note: Do this only if you are going to use it. otherwise if you will use wired connection, dont do it

• Windows: In File Explorer, double click the drive letter of microSD card. This will open the folder /boot and show lots of files and some folders. Right click in /boot folder and create a new blank file named wpa_supplicant.conf. If your Desktop/Laptop does not show file extensions, configure Windows File explorer to show file extensions. If the file has a hidden extension .txt, it will not enable wifi.
  
  Alternatively you can create this file by giving following command in Windows command prompt console, which will create file with correct extension:
  C:\Windows\System32>echo > M:\wpa_supplicant.conf
  (Replace letter M by drive letter of your microSD Card in Windows)
  
  
• Mac: Open terminal and give following command
  touch /Volumes/boot/wpa_supplicant.conf
  Open the Finder program. Select the Micro SD card device labelled "boot". Open the file "wpa_supplicant.conf" in TextEdit.
  
  
• Windows & Mac: In the opened blank file wpa_supplicant.conf, copy paste following text:
  
  

Code Select Expand


network={
    ssid="YOUR_SSID"
    psk="YOUR_PASSWORD"
}


Replace YOUR_SSID by your router's wifi ssid, and YOUR_PASSWORD by your router's wifi password.
Save file. On boot, wifi login info will be automatically copied into file /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf, enabling wifi on first boot.

7 -  Remove microSD card from card reader, insert into Pi, power up, and SSH.

8 -  Install dump1090-mutability v1.15~dev

• It is important that first dump1090-mutability is installed, and data feeders are installed after dump1090-mutability has been installed.
  
• To see the map, type in address bar of your browser:
  

http://<IP of Pi>/dump1090/

On Raspian BUSTER:

Code Select Expand


sudo apt install dump1090-mutability



On Raspbian STRETCH:
Follow the step-by-step method given below to built & install dump1090-mutability_1.15~dev from source code.

8.1 - UPDATE THE OPERATING SYSTEM

Code Select Expand


sudo apt-get update   


8.2 -  INSTALL PRE REQUISIT PACKAGES (needed to build, and needed to fulfill dependencies)

Code Select Expand


sudo apt-get install -y git  build-essential debhelper rtl-sdr   
sudo apt-get install -y librtlsdr-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev pkg-config   
sudo apt-get install -y fakeroot curl cron lighttpd   


8.3 -  DOWNLOAD / CLONE THE SOURCE FILES TO YOUR RPi

Code Select Expand


cd ~/   
sudo mkdir install-dump   
cd install-dump   
sudo git clone -b unmaintained https://github.com/mutability/dump1090.git   


8.4 -  BUILD THE DUMP1090-MUTABILITY PACKAGE
Note: This is a lengthy process, and seems to freez at several occasions. Please be patient, and let the process take it's time to finish.

Code Select Expand


cd ~/install-dump/dump1090   
sudo dpkg-buildpackage -b   


8.5 -  INSTALL THE DUMP1090-MUTABILITY PACKAGE

Code Select Expand


cd ~/install-dump   
sudo dpkg -i dump1090-mutability_1.15~dev_*.deb   


8.6 -  CONFIGURE THE WEB SERVER

Code Select Expand


sudo lighty-enable-mod dump1090   
sudo systemctl force-reload lighttpd   


8.7 -  DUMP1090-MUTABILITY POST INSTALLATION CONFIGURATION

Code Select Expand


sudo dpkg-reconfigure dump1090-mutability   

For most settings, accept default settings by pressing "Enter".
For following settings, enter values as shown:
(a) RTL-SDR dongle to use: 0
(b) Your receiver's Latitude (in decimal format): xx.xxxx
(c) Your receiver's  Longitude (in decimal format): yy.yyyy 
(d) Interface address to bind to (blank for all interfaces): remove default 127.0.0.1 and leave blank.

For advance users:Alternatively, you can change the settings by editing the configuration file shown below:

Code Select Expand


sudo nano /etc/default/dump1090-mutability   
#after making changes, save file and exit     
#restart dump1090-mutability   
sudo systemctl restart dump1090-mutability   


8.8 -  BUG FIX - RASPBIAN STRETCH:
In Raspbian Stretch dump1090-mutability doed not provide output data.
The map in browser (ip-of-pi/dump1090/gmap.html), will show following warning:
"Problem fetching data from dump1090."




Give following commands to remove this bug

Code Select Expand


sudo wget -O /etc/udev/rules.d/rtl-sdr.rules "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/osmocom/rtl-sdr/master/rtl-sdr.rules"

sudo reboot



8.9 -  See Map in your browser at following address
http://<IP of Pi>/dump1090/

.

9 -  ADD TERRAIN LIMIT RINGS
Dump1090-mutability v1.15~dev can display terrain limit rings using data obtained from the website  http://www.heywhatsthat.com.


9.1 -  First you have to generate a panorama for your location. To do this, follow the steps in the first post of the following thread:

What is the Maximum Range I can Get?

9.2 -  Once your panorama is generated, look near the top left of your newly created panorama page. You will see URL of your panorama there. The URL will be http: // www . heywhatsthat . com/?view=XXXXXXXX where XXXXXXXX is the ID for your panorama.

See screenshot below.





9.3 -  Use following command to download the generated panorama's JSON file "upintheair.json" to your RPi, and save it in the folder "/usr/share/dump1090-mutability/html" (replace XXXXXXXX in the command below by your panorama's ID).

Code Select Expand


sudo wget -O /usr/share/dump1090-mutability/html/upintheair.json "http://www.heywhatsthat.com/api/upintheair.json?id=XXXXXXXX&refraction=0.25&alts=3048,12192"   


You can create as many rings as you want by adding elevations (in meters) at the end of URL given in the wget command above after "&alts=", separated by commas.

10,000 ft = 3048 m
20,000 ft = 6096 m
25,000 ft = 7620 m
30,000 ft = 9144 m
40,000 ft = 12192 m

Hence if you want to add all the 5 elevation rings noted above, the string at the end of wget URL will become  "&alts=3048,6096,7620,9144,12192"

To keep map un-cluttered, I have used only 2 rings in the wget command above. i.e. the 10,000 feet (3048 meters), and 40,000 feet (12192 meters).
Important:
Use altitude in meters in the wget URL above.
Do NOT use feet.

9.4 -  RESTART dump1090-mutability

Code Select Expand


sudo systemctl restart dump1090-mutability

To this file, add your receiver's Latitude and longitude (in decimal format) as shown in red below.

9.3 -  Optional: Set gain value
The gain value by default is set "--gain -10" as shown in blue below. The gain value -10 is a special value and sets gain to AGC. 
If you want to change gain setting, replace -10 by the gain value you desire. The possible gain value range is from 0 to 49.6
All gain values should be positive, for example "--gain 38".
The only negative gain value used is -10, which is a special gain value and sets gain to AGC (automatic gain control).
