Sensemap: Colors of the Pins
frankolivergloeckner opened this issue · comments
I was irritated by the colors of the pins on the map. First I thought green stands for online and red for offline. This was virtually supported by the huge amount of red senseboxes that did not deliver current data, or data at all.
Later on I found out that red stands for SenseBox and green for SenseBox Photonik.
I would recommend the following:
red: no data since more than one month
yellow: no data sinde more than one week
green: last update of data not older than 24h
blue: SenseBox Photonik, last update not older than 24h
Furthermore, I would recommend to either remove boxes that have never delivered data or show them in black.
Example http://opensensemap.org/#/explore/56952c4ab3de1fe00524f0e1
check the current Version of the OpenSenseMap. Offline Boxes are now grey and there is an option to hide their markers
If you choose not to show all boxes, there are still some grey ones on display. Is that on purpose (because there are relatively new data available) or is it a bug?
@Bernd90 see sensebox/openSenseMap#87
discussion should be continued there, as this is the correct repo
