KrakenSDR Raspberry Pi 4 image quickstart (this image requires a couple commands to set the environment up) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kVVMPc3WTc

Example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjJOk-vhxMA

A Python application with html dashboard designed to help use your KrakenSDR with TAK products. For use in a non-production environment. Defaults are set to be run on the same server as your KrakenSDR server, however other network configurations should work.

Tested using Python and Python 3 with a Chrome browser.

Quick Start

Step 1: Clone or download Kraken-to-TAK-Python to your computer

Step 2: Initialize or start your KrakenSDR software (this can be done after starting Kraken to TAK also)

Step 3: Navigate to the directory and start

$ cd Kraken-to-TAK-Python
$ python KrakenToTAK.py

Step 4: Open a browser and navigate to http://<YOUR_IP:8000

Instructions

Kraken Server -Kraken Server IP should be the IPv4 of the computer that your KrakenSDR software is running on. The Kraken Station ID is for situations with multiple KrakenSDR radios.

New line with new UID -Persist DOA Line will randomize the UID of the Line XML payload which will create a new line for each DOA bearing instead of overwriting the same line.
