Pigeon, Glad to hear you're working on a v3 update. Let me know what's required and when you have something ready. I'd be more than happy to put the map up on my server. cheers, Rob On Sat, May 25, 2013 at 9:44 PM, Pigeon wrote: > > > I guess no one is maintain the mpmap anymore.. > > > >

I think maybe we need to also invite the fgms team into this discussion The only way really to get a position sat on webserver atmo is to poll a fgms telnet server.. upon its admin port.. eg telnet telnet mpserver01.flightgear.org 5001 return lines.. which are then "parsed" into various formats..

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 t

2010-04-07 Thread Peter Brown
Perhaps this has been brought up before, but I see that the ILS "beam" data for each airport on the mpmap is derived from the runway alignment (as verified in taxidraw). This doesn't allow for magnetic deviation, and therefore all the course headings are incorrect. Makes it tough to line up wi
