Allow OpenSkyNetwork DB, OpenAIP and OurAirports DB stuctures to be
shared by different plugins, to speed up loading.
Perform map anti-aliasing on the whole map, rather than just info boxes,
to improve rendering speed when there are many items. Add map
multisampling as a preference.
Add plotting of airspaces, airports, navaids on Map feature.
Add support for polylines and polygons to be plotted on Map feature.
Add support for images to 2D Map feature.
Add distance and name filters to Map feature.
Filter map items when zoomed out or if off screen, to improve rendering
performance.
Add UK DAB, FM and AM transmitters to Map feature.
Use labelless maps for 2D transmit maps in Map feature (same as in ADS-B
demod).
Add support for animated 3D models.
Downloaded zipped airplane database as 1/4 of the size.
Add table context menu.
Add airline and country images to text bubbles on maps.
Fix calculation of ground speed when on surface.
Fix position calculation when aircraft transistions from surface to air.
Fix altitude calculation when Q-bit is set.
Speed up processing of large log files.
Add new airline logos.
Use km rather than nm for distance to airport calculation.
Require double click to set ATC freqeuncy.
Allow airport to be set as target, by double clicking Az/El in airport
info box.
Add OpenSky Network aircraft database support, for information about
aircraft model, owner, registration.
Add airline logos and country & military flags for display in the table.
Add OurAirports airport database support, to allow airports and ATC
frequencies to be displayed on the map.
Allow ATC frequency to be tuned by clicking on the map.
Add support for displaying flight paths on the map.
Allow columns in table to be rearranged and hidden.
Allow rows in table to be sorted by clicking on header.
Allow switching units from ft, kn, ft/min to m, kph, m/s
Allow aircraft timeout to be set by the user.
Allow font used for the table to be set by the user.
Add optional display of demodulator statistics.
Support multithreading in demodulator to reduce FIFO overflows.
Add support for demodulating all Mode-S frames and feeding them.
Add support for feeding in Beast hex format.
Allow option of correlating against full preamble or partial preamble.
Supporting highlighting of an aircraft in the table by selecting it on
the map.
Use difference of zeros and ones correlation, rather than absolute
threshold, to better account for varying conditions and make the
threshold easier to set.
Enable anti-aliasing for text on the map.
Improve CRC performance by 5x-10x.
Add HttpDownloadManager class to support downloading of files from the
web to disk.
