Additional data: Aircraft Database

Data Sources: Aircraft Database

VRS X does not come with a built-in aircraft database. Why? Because I believe your database is the best, and I know how much time you've spent perfecting it.

By using the BYOD (Bring Your Own Data) approach, VRS X acts as a high-performance compatibility layer. You bring the data, and VRS X makes it fly. This also ensures we stay 100% compliant with various data provider licenses.

Supported Formats

Format	Description
BaseStation.sqb	The classic "Old-but-Gold" SQLite database.
OpenSky Network	CSV files provided by the OpenSky community.
ADS-B Exchange	NDJSON files (full support for `.json.gz` to save bandwidth).

How to Import Data

Importing hundreds of thousands of records is optimized to take only a few seconds, depending on your CPU power.

Go to the Admin Panel.
Select Server Settings from the menu.
Scroll down to the BaseStation Database section.
Paste the download URL for your chosen data source.
Click the corresponding "Import from..." button.
Scroll to the bottom and click Save Configuration.
Restart VRS X to apply changes.

🛠️ Developer's Note (Visual Bug): > Currently, you might see OpenAIP settings in this section. This is a known visual bug and will be moved to its proper place in the next update.

🚀 Future Roadmap: > In upcoming versions, this entire section will move to a dedicated Resources tab, featuring a built-in Database Editor for direct manipulation of your records.
