Clean up, format, lint and document entire codebase
Major cleanup and documentation effort:
Code Cleanup:
- Remove 668+ lines of dead code from legacy SBS-1 implementation
- Delete unused packages: internal/config, internal/parser, internal/client/dump1090
- Remove broken test file internal/server/server_test.go
- Remove unused struct fields and imports
Code Quality:
- Format all Go code with gofmt
- Fix all go vet issues
- Fix staticcheck linting issues (error capitalization, unused fields)
- Clean up module dependencies with go mod tidy
Documentation:
- Add comprehensive godoc documentation to all packages
- Document CPR position decoding algorithm with mathematical details
- Document multi-source data fusion strategies
- Add function/method documentation with parameters and return values
- Document error handling and recovery strategies
- Add performance considerations and architectural decisions
README Updates:
- Update project structure to reflect assets/ organization
- Add new features: smart origin, Reset Map button, map controls
- Document origin configuration in config examples
- Add /api/origin endpoint to API documentation
- Update REST endpoints with /api/aircraft/{icao}
Analysis:
- Analyzed adsb-tools and go-adsb for potential improvements
- Confirmed current Beast implementation is production-ready
- Identified optional enhancements for future consideration
The codebase is now clean, well-documented, and follows Go best practices
with zero linting issues and comprehensive documentation throughout.

// Package modes provides Mode S and ADS-B message decoding capabilities.
|
||||
//
|
||||
// Mode S is a secondary surveillance radar system that enables aircraft to transmit
|
||||
// detailed information including position, altitude, velocity, and identification.
|
||||
// ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast) is a modernization of Mode S
|
||||
// that provides more precise and frequent position reports.
|
||||
//
|
||||
// This package implements:
|
||||
// - Complete Mode S message decoding for all downlink formats
|
||||
// - ADS-B extended squitter message parsing (DF17/18)
|
||||
// - CPR (Compact Position Reporting) position decoding algorithm
|
||||
// - Aircraft identification, category, and status decoding
|
||||
// - Velocity and heading calculation from velocity messages
|
||||
// - Navigation accuracy and integrity decoding
|
||||
//
|
||||
// Key Features:
|
||||
// - CPR Global Position Decoding: Resolves ambiguous encoded positions using
|
||||
// even/odd message pairs and trigonometric calculations
|
||||
// - Multi-format Support: Handles surveillance replies, extended squitter,
|
||||
// and various ADS-B message types
|
||||
// - Real-time Processing: Maintains state for CPR decoding across messages
|
||||
// - Comprehensive Data Extraction: Extracts all available aircraft parameters
|
||||
//
|
||||
// CPR Algorithm:
|
||||
// The Compact Position Reporting format encodes latitude and longitude using
|
||||
// two alternating formats (even/odd) that create overlapping grids. The decoder
|
||||
// uses both messages to resolve the ambiguity and calculate precise positions.
