Creating a Flight Tracking Dashboard

This repository contains the MATLAB® code for the series of articles on Creating a Flight Tracking Dashboard, available under the MATLAB Graphics and App Building blog.

MATLAB provides a large suite of visualization functions tailored to scientific and engineering applications. In addition, MATLAB enables you to develop domain-specific visualizations. These can be embedded in all data analytics workflows, ranging from small-scale interactive tasks to more complex reports, apps and web apps such as dashboard-like front ends.
