adsbx-james··on ADS-B Exchange – Co-op of unfiltered flight data
Yes and No. It has been attempted by a company in the UK, that would raise your rates of you fly in conditions that they deem risky. I think market is so niche and unprofitable that this large data analysis is seem as an unneeded expense for underwriting.

Setup a reliable feeder sending data to ADSBexchange.com and get a REST API key that would cost you $100,000+ a month from FlightAware or FlightRadar24. Non-commercial enthusiast use only. And please be kind to API, no sending 10,000 requests a second.

Just look at the code there. The author goes MIA and bugs are not fixed. There's really no reason to use it at this point - as there are better alternative and modern setups.

Unfortunately OpenSky does filter data (donors and sponsors to name a few) and is nothing more than a tax dollar black hole and front for commercially selling data while supporting the for profit Sero Systems.

ADSBx offered to share data, a data swap. Opensky was not interested and told us - "go fuck yourselves".

LOL link to 12 year old code that is not updated :D

Whens someone asks for a glass of water, do you also drive them to the mountains and point at the rain clouds?

FlightAware sells blocking services and dashboards. Don't be fooled, the privacy lobbying is only to make more money for FlightAware and FlightRada24.

Feeders sending them free data for fake enterprise dashboards and fake "$89 value" accounts have made David Baker a multi-millionaire.

Glad you are putting that data to good use!
