Introduction
With Tacview Advanced and above, you can stream telemetry data in real-time using the public protocol described in this documentation. Handy to oversee, in real-time, a battle taking place in a flight simulator, this feature will be extended later to real-life so you can watch a flight currently in progress using smartphones and/or low cost data recorders.

Like the acmi format 2.x, Tacview real-time telemetry protocol been developed to be very easy to use. It is a pure UTF-8 text protocol which can be implemented with most languages, including scripts like LUA. After a very simple handshake (connection) with Tacview, the data flow will be steady, relatively compact and robust thanks to TCP/IP.
