Task File Format

Currently the code handles JSON and XCSoar TSK files. You can generate such a task file with many programs (e.g. prosoar.de). The task file can be local or hosted somewhere (hosting with CORS). Remark: github and gists has CORS enabled.

To display only aircrafts you want, you can specify a "whitelist" of device IDs in the task file (currently only supported by JSON files). The devices need to be registered in the OGN database to be recognized.

Example task file (json-encoded)

{"tasks": [
    {"name": "15m", "color": "0000FF", "legs": [ [47.3,1.55],[48.2,2.3],[30000],[47.5,-1.3],[50000],[47.3,1.5] ] },
    {"name": "standart","color": "FFFF00","legs": [ [47.2,1.55],[46.5,2.3],[46.5,-0.2],[47,-0.2],[47.2,1.5] ] },
    {"name": "open","color": "FFFFFF","legs": [ [47.25,1.6],[48,3],[46,3],[47.22,1.6] ],"wlist": ["DD1111", "DD2222", "DD3333", "DD4444"]}
]}

There is an external program cup2ogn.exe that will generate such a file either of a .CUC (SeeYou competition scoring file), or of a .CUP file (with or without a task, but with is better).
