David,
For the purpose of placing devices on a world map a 6-position gridsquare should be minimal and enough.
People wanting to send a more exact position can do it, but a 4-position grid square is IMHO not sufficient. So for the moment, the receiving side truncates the locator to 6 positions and converts that one to a lon/lat value (the center of the subsquare).
Let me get this map running first and we will see where we go from there.

Hey Marius,
If you are going to use grid squares instead of Lat/Long or GPS coordinates, could you maybe support addition resolution on the Grid square? For example, my high resolution grid square is CM97ai02ak http://www.dxmaps.com/callbook/gmap.php . Most people might only like to give say CM97, most people will give CM97ai, maybe others might give CM97ai02 .

(Please trim inclusions from previous messages) _______________________________________________ Hello everyone,
For the proposed experiment on creating a interactive dynamic map of the ampr-ripd systems, I created a special version (2.2).
The daemon accepts a new parameter -L <string>. If this string is defined, it will be sent every 5 minutes to my gateway 44.182.21.1 via UDP to port 59001.
The format I will use is plain and simple gwcallsign@locator, case insensitive e.g. -L yo2loj@kn05or.
If we will ned somehow more data, the string can be replaced wit anything, it is just sent as it is and will be parsed by the backend.
For the moment there is only a simple listener monitoring that port, and I am working on the server and interactive map which will be available at
http://yo2tm.ampr.org/ampr-map/
For those that do not want to participate, there is no need to upgrade.
And even if you do, not setting the -L parameter will not send any data, the result being the same behavior like 2.1.1.

Marius,
Should data be appearing on the map at:
http://yo2tm.ampr.org/ampr-map/
I haven't seen a change.

Ok. The first version is up and running (at least it should).
I'm not sure how it is working from the "outside"...

It works, but some comments:
1. There are a whole lot more location dots on the map than there are senders listed in the box in the lower left of the display,
2. The location dots are nearly as big as some of the countries. - Brian

Yes, the system holds at the moment up to 100 latest locations in memory, which it pushes to the web page on startup. If I would make the list longer it would cover the map.
In the list, there are only the last 5 entries.
About the size of the location dots: If I make them smaller, there would be a problem to hit them with the mouse button on high res displays... And there is always the zoom option (+/-, the mouse wheel).
Let's see in the next steps... (BTW, if someone has a nicer sound than that phew...)

Oh, the dots are mouseable? I didn't even suspect. Shame on me. - Brian

For the moment, just the callsign on mouse over them...

Looks pretty cool Marius and I'm on the map! This could be a better way to advertise services to the AMPR system if we can figure out a way to standardize the input, etc.

We could use LOC, SRV, TXT, and other DNS records to store the data, and fetch the information when the map is moused. I think it would be unwise to have a separate database. - Brian
Hi,
We have one database with map of HamNET/Amprnet hosts in Europe (but we can add hosts outside Europe):
http://hamnetdb.net/lsp_map.cgi#zoom=6&lat=48.8&lon=10.5&layer=G... http://hamnetdb.net/
The source of this database is available:

Marius,
Can you think of a reason my -L appears with my public IP instead of my 44 address?
