Exactly what gets synced
Kimo maps ADS-B Air Traffic into clean, typed tables with primary keys and incremental cursors, so syncs stay fast and joins just work.
2 tables · 11 fields

| icao24 | string | |
| ts | timestamp | Incremental cursor |

Setup
Connect ADS-B Air Traffic in 3 min
No engineers, no pipelines to maintain. Kimo asks for the minimum access it needs and tells you exactly what it will read.
- 1
Create a read-only key in ADS-B Air Traffic
Use a dedicated key scoped to read access, so it can be rotated independently.
- 2
Paste it into Kimo
Keys are encrypted with a per-workspace key and never shown again.
- 3
Choose streams
Pick which objects to sync, starting with positions.
- 4
Validate and sync
Kimo tests the key, backfills history and keeps it fresh (real time).
Read-only, encrypted, revocable. Credentials are encrypted with a per-workspace key, never logged, and can be rotated without breaking your models.
