Database Problems

TrackLog has beed moved to a new, more powerful server. Tracking is online again. I will keep you informed how stable the system runs.

Barogram

Now it is possible to show a barogram of a recorded track on the map page.
Note: You need a browser, which supports the HTML 5 standard. Use either Safari 4.0 or Firefox 3.5. The Internet Explorer does not fully support this HTML standard.
Click the text in a user box in the left column. The box expands and shows more data. Click the 'Barogram' button. Underneath the map the barogram for this users track appears. The intensity of the ambient noise is shown with red bars in the background. The dimensions depend on the selected system. Move the cursor over the barogram and you will see the data at this point. if you click a position the corresponding location will be centered on the map. Now you see a marker on the map.

New Forum

I installed a bulletin board. I will publish news and information here. You may ask questions and discuss problems.

New Map Features

The tracking maps got a new menu 'More...'. Three new layers can now be selected or deselected:
  • The layer 'Photos' shows pictures which where taken at the marked places.
  • The layer 'Videos' shows movies which about the marked place.
  • The layer 'Wikipedia' shows information which about the marked place.
A click on a users marker shows information about his / her location and his / her movement.
The info box ind the left column gets a red colored background in case the glider engine or the balloon burner is running. A red altitude text at the user marker indicates the same thing.
Attention Webmasters: To get all these functionality in your iframe, you must change the address from 'ifram.html' to 'iframe.php'. For more information go to page Webmasters.
