PyCot
Python Cursor on Target LibrarySummary
PyCot is developed to assist and streamline integration with programs that utilize Cursor on Target (CoT). This tool seeks to help generate, validate, and parse XML data that is defined from either MITRE or the MIL-STD.
Why?
I needed an easy way to interface with CoT messages, I could not find one available.
Usage
pipx install PyCot
import CoT
import datetime
import socket
now = datetime.datetime.now(datetime.timezone.utc)
stale = now + datetime.timedelta(minutes=2)
# Generate new Cursor on Target Event
py_cot = CoT.Event(
version="2.0",
type="a-u-G-U-U-S-R-S",
access="Undefined",
uid="Debug.Python",
time=now,
start=now,
stale=stale,
how="h-g-i-g-o",
qos="2-i-c",
point=CoT.Point(lat=90, lon=90, hae=9999999, ce=9999999, le=9999999),
detail={"contact": {"callsign": "Debug.Python"}},
)
# Your TAK IPv4 / Port
TAK_IP = "x.x.x.x"
TAK_PORT = 9000
# Sending UDP -> TAK Insecure Anonymous Port
sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
sock.connect((TAK_IP, TAK_PORT))
sock.sendall(bytes(py_cot.xml(), encoding="utf-8"))
