Is this project still working ?

Open jchisholm59 opened this issue 4 months ago • 3 comments

Umm.. so.. is this map project still working? My local install shows nothing, no nodes being seen, and even yours doesn't show nodes (ie mine) which are certainly reporting to mqtt.meshtastic.org

Meshmap.net does show the expected nodes.

Thanks

The Liam Cottle map only shows nodes that upload to the Liam Cottle MQTT server. This is because Liam's map stores location data for one week, which the Meshtastic team didn't want copied from the official server.

Personally I have one node uploading to Liam's map, and one uploading to the official server. I keep both on Client, but one only rebroadcasts nodes it knows.

Perhaps the README could be updated as it indicates that the map displays data that has been submitted via mqtt to mqtt.meshtastic.org

(Hence my confusion)
