[HECnet] HECnet map

[Robert Armstrong]

  This is really nice!

  What does the color code mean?  In particular, why are some sites shown in
yellow and some nodes in red?  (Like mine!)

  And what are all the gray pushpins?  Are those nodes with registered
locations but no links?

Thanks,
Bob

Gentlepeople,

I've added a map maker to PyDECnet, which is now on-line on HECnet.  It
currently refreshes once every 24 hours, showing locations and paths between
the locations.  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.

The map is here: http://akdesign.dyndns.org:8080/map

You can also see a tabular display of the data collected by the network
scanner, at http://akdesign.dyndns.org:8080/map/data .  Right now that link
isn't shown, I'll add that.

Feedback would be welcome.  There is no map legend yet.  The button on the
upper right is the "layers" tool that lets you chose among a number of map
sources, and lets you turn the location and/or path information on or off.  

The default map is OpenStreetMap, and the mapping interface machinery is the
Leaflet package, a very nice and easy to use tool.
