javAPRSSrvr is an APRS-IS server based in Java. It runs on any platform that supports Java 1.1.4 and above. It has been used extensively on Windows NT, 2000, 2003, XP, Linux, FreeBSD Unix, and Mac OS 9.0 and X. It provides connectivity between clients, IGates, and other servers.

javAPRSSrvr has been designed to meet the current de facto specifications of APRS-IS. Further information on those specifications can be found at http://www.aprs-is.net javAPRSSrvr is supports most types of ports available from other servers. It implements a thorough packet processing algorithm causing clean AX.25 headers and unaltered payloads to be sent out the various connections. There are a number of built-in safeguards that reduce or eliminate APRS-IS centric loops.

javAPRSSrvr supports server adjuncts which can provide any type of extra processing on packets. javAPRSFilter is one adjunct that is implemented that provides selective output to ports and allows users to define their own data stream to receive. javAPRSDB is another that lets javAPRSSrvr populate a database.

javAPRSSrvr supports IGate adjuncts which can provide a bidirectional feed directly into the server. javAPRSIGate is one adjunct that is implemented which provides full IGate functionality with an open TNC interface. javAPRSDigi is an adjunct to javAPRSIGate that provides full AX.25 NSR digipeater functionality. Other IGate adjuncts are javAPRSQRZ and javAPRSEmail.
