Radiosonde demodulator and feature

A nice contribution from Jon srcejon. It adds two plugins:

  • Radiosonde demodulator: This plugin can be used to demodulate RS41 radiosonde weather balloon signals. Radiosondes typically transmit on 400-406MHz and are in the sky around the world for around 1 hour around 00:00 UTC.
  • Radiosonde feature: The Radiosonde feature displays a table containing the most recent information received from radiosondes based on data received via one or more Radiosonde Demodulators.
    • The chart can plot two data series vs time for the radiosonde selected in the table.
    • The Radiosonde feature can draw ballons objects on the Map feature in 2D and 3D.
