+OpenSky Network Data Source for Apache Spark - Academic/Private Use Example
+
+This module provides a custom Spark data source for streaming real-time aircraft tracking data from the OpenSky Network API (https://opensky-network.org/). The OpenSky Network is a community-based receiver network that collects air traffic surveillance data and makes it available as open data to researchers and enthusiasts.
+
+Features:
+- Real-time streaming of aircraft positions, velocities, and flight data
+- Support for multiple geographic regions (Europe, North America, Asia, etc.)
+- OAuth2 authentication for higher API rate limits (4000 vs 100 calls/day)
+- Robust error handling with automatic retries and rate limiting
+- Data validation and type-safe parsing of aircraft state vectors
+- Configurable bounding boxes for focused data collection
+
+Usage Example (Academic/Research):
+ # Basic usage with region NORTH_AMERICA
+ df = spark.readStream.format("opensky").load()
+ 
+ # With specific region and authentication
+ df = spark.readStream.format("opensky") \
+ .option("region", "EUROPE") \
+ .option("client_id", "your_research_client_id") \
+ .option("client_secret", "your_research_client_secret") \
+ .load()
+
+Data Schema:
+ Each record contains comprehensive aircraft information including position (lat/lon),altitude, velocity, heading, call sign, ICAO identifier, and various flight status flags. All timestamps are in UTC timezone for consistency.
+
+Feed your own data to OpenSky Network https://opensky-network.org/feed
+
+Rate Limits & Responsible Usage:
+ - Anonymous access: 100 API calls per day
+ - Authenticated access: 4000 API calls per day (research accounts)
+ - Minimum 5-second interval between requests
+ - 8000 API calls if you feed your own data to the OpenSky Network feed (https://opensky-network.org/feed)
