Our tenants live in our property that is in a known Airport Influence Area ("AIA")[1] but this year, they reported to us the noise associated with the airport's Instrument Approach Procedures have increased. Airplanes arriving at the airport fly less than 1,000 feet in elevation right above our neighborhood. Even worse, airplanes come in consecutively so the noise is back to back w/o much reprieve. The Noise and Capacity Office allows to manually report[2] such aircraft but I'm wondering if this device can detect these aircrafts which can lead to report submission. Any insight on doing this is appreciated! [1] https://lacounty.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=7cb3fb165b0143c3993eaf6748c7d2e1 https://lacounty.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=7cb3fb165...

The data broadcast from ADS-B includes both GPS position (Lat + Lon) and altitude. If you created a bounding box, you could add a height parameter to make it 3D, and get a list of such aircraft and the timestamps of their transmissions while inside that (3D) bounding box. That wouldn't be too difficult to do with a little bit of filtering of the feed coming out of an ADS-B receiver.

  An RF receiver is not required for the subject use case, they can use existing ADS-B IP feeds, process the feed (either live or with historical data) according to the 3D bounding box, and generate reports based on flight paths intersecting the bounding box. https://www.adsb.lol/ https://www.adsb.lol/ Airloom – 3D Flight Tracker - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46080289 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46080289 - November 2025 (106 comments)
