Release EDSM - Elite Dangerous Star Map

[AnthorNet]

Howdie,
A quick note to tell you that our migration process ended yesterday, we are now fully using our new servers (Apart for our mailman list).
A huge thank to every commander that have supported us by donating for the server, I must have put all of you on the support page and if I missed you don't hesitate to send me a PM.

In order to maintain good performance, we have blocked the systems and distances API to retrieve data only by week interval.
This means that you cannot access more than a week of data for each request, this only apply on the systems and distances API call.

Example:
startdatetime: 2016-01-08 will make enddatetime to 2016-01-15
enddatetime: 2016-01-08 wil make startdatetime to 2016-01-01

We will soon provide nightly dump of our database in case you need a fresh start.

That is great news. Hopefully it's now more stable.

I am also happy to see that you put everyday new Systems on the frontpage to get their coordinates sorted out.

Yeah we push some of them, what I am doing right now is running our maintenance script and try to correct all bad distances.
If I don't have enough data I push them for verification.
What I want is to soon have a free error database so we can check only the last submissions ! Already did 6 month of data and they are less than a thousand bad distances recorded for systems we know the coordinates.

Once we are free of old errors I will make push to front a little more automated by pushing systems with wrong distances submitted for example and old systems that do not have coordinates yet.
Another idea when there is no system pushed is to pushed the oldest trilateration to ensure the system has not move.

And yes the new server is faster and hopefully more stable. The new infrastructure will also permit to be more reactive in case of errors.

I forgot to say that we have added a new import function for your log. You can now drop a verbose log into the front end to add your flight logs. I'm hoping it is bug free

Ploea Theia LZ-E c25-1 seems to be on the wrong place.

Looks very odd. At the given position in GM there is no system, not even anywhere 30 or 50 Ly around. I pushed it to the front, to get some more distances. The correct position will be calculated soon, if we receive some.

Fixed with new coordinates.

Hi

Thank you for the awesome job on EDSM that I just discovered few days ago. I'm amazed how smart it is

It seems that V401 Orionis (61131) coordinates are erroneous.

Salut Pingouin masqué !

Effectively, the coordinates seems wrong with your distances.
I pushed the system to the front page (http://www.edsm.net/systems/front) so it should be corrected pretty fast

EDIT: Was faster than expected http://www.edsm.net/show-system/index/id/61131/name/V401+Orionis

Thanks, sadly I don't have access to the discord chat, so if you have problem with the page or for some trilateration, you know where to find me

This is awesome! Quick question: do we need to have our profiles set to public? Mine was set to private apparently and I'm listed as not registered (#75).

No you don't, the script I use to copy the roster did not find you!
I just updated you with your account.

Hi,

Quick question...

I'm listed as #774 on the rosta, but on the DW Expedition summary on EDSM I'm #773?

Have we lost someone already :S

Perfect, thank you!

Was so hard to parse the roster with the forum html, I may have miss someone

 

[muthan]

I don't participate but I think it would be nice if a link to the distant worlds overview would be on the frontpage.

As always keep up the good work.
