Locally I've been playing around with open layers a bit. Also web
sockets. The idea that I think would be interesting to try would be to
build a websocket interface into flightgear, then serve out the map data
locally rather than from a server.
Essentially if you are running FlightGear with MP turned on and running the
mpmap in your browser, you burn your bandwidth twice to ship the same
information down your internet pipe to two separate applications.
If you served the map from FlightGear directly, you could draw the nearby
MP traffic, local AI traffic, and not double burn your internet bandwidth
at the same time.
I have a basic websocket interface, but I haven't tried to integrate it
into FlightGear yet. Also we'd need to expand FlightGear's httpd interface
to also be able to serve .html and .js files -- probably from a single
authorized subdirectory for security reasons.
