REORGANIZE app in 3 pillars

Reorganize app in 3 pillars

  1. planning: prepare flight route
  2. live: all live broadcasting pilots
  3. review: replay and analyze recorded flights

separated modes

3 modes are disjoint but have tools in common. ie. you cant do planning and live at same time. 1st you have to choose you mode. To change mode, you first have to close the current mode.

planning

current functions of drawing. maybe add hike&fly tools (like in spotair)

live

Live mode display pilots currently flying (or recently). A list of all tracking is displayed. The list can be filtered and sorted. See more details after. In the list, user can select some track for more details.

filter

Filters are critical to browse through hundreds of tracks on good days. If user click (+filter) icon, he can choose :

  • buddies (assuming logged in and you have "friends")
  • in current map frustum
  • less than XX Km from me (current browser location)
  • nationality
  • status: flying/walking/driving/lost/live By default, there is no filter.

sort

Sorting is less important than filter, but can help finding a specific track

  • nickname (obviously)
  • distance from here (current browser location)
  • XC distance (eg. to get the king of the day)

details

Checked tracks are assigned to a color and shown

  • on the map
  • on the altitude graph The history length can be chosen for given duration or the all track.

example

Here an example: propal

common tools

For all modes, there is a common set of tools, like :

  • switch 3D/2D
  • show airspace
  • show skyways
  • show labels (roads, cities ?)
  • switch maptile satelite/relief

Airspaces, skyways might be customizable (through settings button).

More to come
