At least in Germany, this is not legal.

Even if I broadcast my own position by using a FLARM, it does not
imply the permission to store and redistribute it.  The position data
is allowed to be used for one single purpose: to calculate the
likeliness of mid-air collisions.  That is the single goal of FLARM.

XCSoar uses it to render lift rates of other gliders, and that is a
stretch already.
