I had this exact idea and have been working on it. Have almost exactly your bill of materials. Glad to know there are others out there who find this interesting, great work!

I was always worried about making it a public data source. Kinda seems like it could be potentially dangerous, but that’s completely paranoid speculation. Thanks for sharing!

I should clarify that I’m mostly guessing on your bill of materials. There are only a few obvious choices for this project.

I posted a bit more on what I am using on the About page: http://skybot.cam/about

I got all the camera gear on ebay, which was lucky.

I figure since it is all based on ADS-B data, there isn't anything too crazy about making it public. I am also still trying to figure out if it is actually useful for anything... besides getting unlimited plane photos!

The only non-public information you're making available is the approximate location of your house!

It's a very high end approach to planespotting though. People used to just tick off serial numbers in books :D

I’m doing tensorflow on an nvidia jetson. Indeed, slowly. Thanks for sharing those details on your project!
