Simon's World Map feature suggestion
Posted: Wed Dec 28, 2022 6:12 pm
Hi Simon,
I'm absolutely loving the map display with the live updating auroral forecast, but how about this for a feature to stay ahead of the game? In order to see radio blackouts caused by solar flares on the map, replace the standard map background with a cropped version of the SWPC D-RAP image located on the web here: SWPC D-RAP and allow it to update once every x-minutes (I'd suggest every 1-5 minutes at a minimum). The map would need to be cropped on import but I would guess that's not too hard to achieve? The result would look something in like the attachment.
Best wishes,
Andy G7IZU.
