FAA SWIM Data Acquisition from Solace

The developers at Solace just made connecting to FAA SWIM sources easier. Check out their github open source software here https://github.com/solacese/swim-feed-handler/blob/master/README.md .

We downloaded this software and quickly changed the connection parameters to match those on the SWIM Cloud Distribution Service (SCDS https://scds.swim.faa.gov/) that were received after signing up for an account. Be sure to turn on file logging and turn off the daisy chaining to a local Solace instance unless that is your goal. It worked very well. We are now looking for open source developers to help extend this basic software so that users can archive data to hourly files.
