# Query parameters

- The query parameters are appended to the URL you would normally use for tar1090.
- Before the first query parameter a question mark ? is prepended, for each additional parameter an ampersand & is prepended.
- Example: http://192.168.x.yy/tar1090/?icao=456789&enableLabels&extendedLabels=2&trackLabels&zoom=11&mapDim=0.4

- Some parameters need a value. If no value if passed, the default one is used.
- Some parameters do not take a value. They are active if used in the URL.(hideSideBar, hideButtons, ...).
- Query parameters in tar1090 are not case sensitive.

## Search / filter

- icao=icao - selects and isolates the selected plane(s). Separate multiple with commas.
- noIsolation - show other planes and not only the ones selected by ?icao
- icaoFilter=hex1,hex2,hex3 - Only show the mentioned hex IDs, no other aircraft will ever be displayed
- reg=registration - Direct link to specific aircraft registration(s). Separate multiple with commas. ?icao is preferred as this option takes longer to load.
- filterAltMin=500 - filter minimum altitute to 500 ft
- filterAltMax=5000 - filter maximum altitute to 5000 ft
- filterCallSign=^(UAL|DAL) - filter callsign to United or Deleta
- filterType=B738 - filter to aircraft type code B738 aka 737-800
- filterDescription=L2J - filter aircraft by type description
- filterIcao=^a - filter icao that start with a
- filterSources=adsb,uat,adsr,mlat,tisb,modeS - filter palnes by source type.
- filterDbFlag=military,pia,ladd - filter planes by the db flags.
- sortBy=column - (possible values: icao, flag, flight, registration, aircraft_type, squawk, altitude, speed, vert_rate, distance, track, msgs, seen, rssi, lat, lon, data_source, military, ws, wd
- sortByReverse - reverse the sorting specified using sortBy
