[HECnet] HECnet map

[Paul Koning]

Code is checked in, if you want to see how it's done.  The core code is in mapper.py, just about 1000 lines.  Well, there is of course the Leaflet package, which is quite a large body of Javascript.  I don't know Javascript at all, beyond what I had to learn to interface to it, which was quite easy and well documented.

You can hover over the location markers to see nodes that have been recently observed, or click on the markers to see all nodes whether observed or not.  Clicking on the connecting arcs will tell you which nodes have connections on that path.
