Untracked Aircraft

Would count aircraft that appear without a registered ICAO address, as published in adsb.fi's half-hourly heatmap files. Parsing that format is not implemented yet. Aircraft flying without a standard address are a distinct and sometimes sensitive slice of traffic.

Current reading

Not collecting yet. No measurements or baseline exist for this planned detector.

Global, limited by receiver coverage

Interpretation

No statistical assessment is available before collection begins.

What movement could mean

    Not established. No data has been collected. Source-reported severity, statistical deviation and real-world risk are different questions. This reading does not independently support a hypothesis about intent or cause.

    Evidence and limitations

    Cadence and latency
    Collection is not scheduled. Collection cadence is not source latency; no measured end-to-end latency is provided here. Source publication and revisions can delay what is visible.
    Known false-positive patterns
      Coverage and blind spots
        Technical detail
        Measurement definition
        Proposed: half-hourly count of non-ICAO addresses in adsb.fi heatmaps.
        Raw metric
        Not configured
        Method
        Not yet implemented. No measurements are collected or displayed for this detector.
