Nice job.
It would be nice -- someday -- if the "red" coverage shading was actually changed to be color coded for which site is illuminating a given area. When I see "red" somewhere, I don't know which site is supposedly covering it and where to aim the dish...
Some areas are covered by more than one site in which case the colors would overlap, but that's definitely nice to know too...
Ed, This is on the roadmap, but as far as I know, I'm our only javascript developer and I've been busy with other projects this summer (new website, Baldi camera, Gold, and Capitol Peak deploys, among other things). If you are any good at javascript, you could take a stab at it. The source data can all be gleaned by reading the current map.js file and once you have the new map code working we can swap it in. I've found that knowing which site *should* be strongest at a particular location is not terribly relevant in the real world. For example, the computer models show that Baldi, ETiger, and Gold should all be reachable from my house. When I do a sweep with the dish, I see beacon packets from ETiger and Gold. Nothing from Baldi. Oh well, what matters here is reality, not what the model shows. Tom
