Right-hand dark sidebar holds the layer selector, description,
navigation links, and auth menu. Mobile floating panel mirrors the
pattern used on /map so users get the same controls in both views.
- Forecast hour clicks showed only a small square of coverage because
:preload_forecast ran at mount using a hardcoded fallback bounding box
instead of the client's actual viewport. Move the preload trigger into
handle_event("map_bounds", ...) so the cache always matches the
viewport the client just asked about.
- Map overlay blinked on load/update because renderScores called Leaflet
GridLayer.redraw(), which removes every tile element before recreating
them. Repaint the existing tile canvases in place instead.
- Prod SMTP to mail.smtp2go.com was failing with an "unexpected_message"
TLS alert: gen_smtp wasn't sending SNI so the wildcard cert endpoint
rejected the handshake. Set tls: :always with explicit tls_options
(server_name_indication, versions, verify).
- AdifImport.normalize_mode/2 maps ADIF MODE (and SUBMODE when present)
onto the fixed set of modes the site accepts: CW/SSB/FM/FT8/FT4/Q65.
SUBMODE takes precedence so `MODE=MFSK, SUBMODE=FT8` correctly imports
as FT8. USB/LSB/DSB all become SSB; NBFM/WFM become FM.
- Unknown modes (RTTY, PSK31, etc.) map to nil so the row still imports
— mode is optional on the submission path now.
- AdifImport.mode_mapping_reference/0 returns the user-facing list of
recognized inputs and their mappings.
- Submit page's ADIF tab renders that list in a table so users can see
upfront what will happen to their file before uploading.
- Add ContactMapController serving /api/contacts/map with pre-gzipped
JSON from Microwaveprop.Cache. Browsers handle Content-Encoding: gzip
natively; payload drops from 5.7 MB raw to 1.5 MB on the wire (73%).
Cache TTL 10 min, invalidated on contact insert alongside the other
contact-map cache keys.
- Move contact map payload out of the LiveView's initial HTML entirely.
Shell renders with the filter chrome (count + band list); the hook
fetches contacts from the HTTP endpoint in parallel with map init.
This also avoids Phoenix.Socket's 64 KB frame limit (push_event would
have required chunked transfer or a global frame size bump).
- Parallelize ContactLive.Show hydrate: five independent DB loads
(weather, solar, hrrr_path, terrain, iemre) now run concurrently via
Task.async + Task.await_many. Total latency drops from sum(each) to
max(each), cutting contact show hydrate time roughly 5x.
- Add Weather.GridCache: ETS cache of derived HRRR grid rows keyed by
valid_time, cluster-synced via PubSub. Eagerly warmed from
PropagationGridWorker after each upsert so /weather map pan/zoom and
weather_point_detail hit zero DB on warm cache.
- Replace latest_weather_grid DB query path with cache-first lookup +
DB fallback. hrrr_profiles is 42M rows partitioned; pulling 3-10k
rows per viewport on every pan was the main cost.
- ContactLive.Show: defer the heavy enrichment loads (weather, solar,
HRRR, terrain, IEMRE, elevation profile, ITU-R propagation analysis,
data_sources) into a handle_info(:hydrate) that runs after the shell
renders. Initial mount now returns nil placeholders; template already
had :if guards for all of them. Shell-to-first-paint goes from
~500ms-2s down to ~20ms.
- Cache fetch_queue_counts for 5s in ContactLive.Show — oban_jobs group
by query was running on every contact page view.
- Backfill stats: wrap count_unprocessed, fetch_stats, fetch_db_stats
in Microwaveprop.Cache with 2-5s TTLs; bump refresh debounce from 1s
to 2s so bulk enrichment events don't thrash the DB.
- Add contacts_inserted_at_desc_id_desc_idx so /contacts list runs as an
Index Scan (~0.4ms) instead of a Seq Scan + top-N heapsort (~77ms on
58k rows)
- Add Microwaveprop.Cache: tiny ETS-backed TTL cache for memoizing
expensive-but-stale-tolerant values
- Cache total_entries for unsearched /contacts page loads (30s TTL,
invalidated on insert)
- Cache the entire /contacts/map payload (pre-encoded JSON + band list),
moving load_contacts into Radio.contact_map_payload; invalidated on
new contact insert. Mount goes from ~150-300ms to ~5ms.
- Fix /map overlay blinking on load: reuse the Leaflet GridLayer across
renderScores calls and just redraw() against the updated ScoreGrid,
instead of removeLayer + new layer which flashed between tile regens
- Make mode optional on submission: schema change (null: true),
submission_changeset no longer requires it, blank strings normalise to
nil, CSV import accepts 6-column (no mode) or 7-column layouts
- core_components .input adds a red asterisk to labels when required,
giving users a visual cue for which fields must be filled on /submit
- ScoreCache stores {band, valid_time} as %{{lat, lon} => score} map so
point lookups are O(1); adds fetch_point/4 and valid_times/1
- available_valid_times/1 reads directly from ScoreCache when warm,
falls back to DB on cold start
- point_forecast/3 iterates cached valid_times and uses fetch_point/4
instead of hitting the DB per click
- NexradCache: node-local ETS cache of decoded n0q PNG pixel buffers
keyed by 5-minute rounded timestamp; skips ~1-5s HTTP+decode on
concurrent/repeat clicks within the same window
- MapLive: start_async the rain_scatter fetch so point_detail renders
immediately with a pending marker; push rain_scatter_update when
NEXRAD resolves
- MapLive: preload all 18 remaining forecast hours for the current
viewport after mount/band change/propagation_updated; client caches
them and renders timeline scrubs instantly without a server roundtrip.
Adds set_selected_time event for fast-path state sync.
- Propagation map JS: forecastCache map + drawScatterMarkers helper,
timeline click uses preloaded cache when available
1. Prevent user_id impersonation in contact submissions
- Remove user_id from submission_changeset cast fields
- Pass user_id as a separate server-side argument to create_contact/2
- Client form params can no longer forge account-linked contacts
2. Restrict flag toggle to admins only
- Add admin? guard to toggle_flag event handler
- Hide flag button from non-admin users in template
3. Reset enrichment on timestamp edits
- Add qso_timestamp to the fields that trigger enrichment reset
- Prevents stale weather/HRRR/IEMRE data after time changes
Aliases: add module aliases for 9 nested module references
Apply: replace apply/3 with direct module attribute calls
Line length: break 1 long spec line
Refactoring: extract helpers to reduce complexity and nesting
in show.ex, radio.ex, weather workers, terrain, duct detection,
backfill dashboard, contact map, and mix tasks
- Replace %Struct{} with Struct.t() in all @spec annotations
- Replace length(x) > 0 with x != [] in test assertions
- Fix multi-line spec struct references in weather.ex
- Revert enrichment status cards from daisyUI stat to plain containers
(tabular status rows don't fit the stat component's layout)
- Add overflow-hidden to DB stat cards for large numbers
- Fix select text centering with display:flex + align-items:center
- Add belongs_to :user on Beacon schema, preload in get_beacon!/1
- Show "Submitted by {callsign}" on beacon detail page
- Add NTMS donation link on the about page
- Change grid preference text to 8 characters (e.g. EM12kp37)
Parse ADIF tagged-data format with fuzzy frequency-to-band matching
(nearest microwave band for any freq >= 900 MHz). Supports STATION_CALLSIGN,
OPERATOR, CALL, GRIDSQUARE, MY_GRIDSQUARE, FREQ, BAND, QSO_DATE, TIME_ON.
Same dedup and preview/commit flow as CSV upload.
Also fix select dropdown text alignment in daisyUI.
Backfill page now sums child partition stats for partitioned tables
like hrrr_profiles (relkind 'p') which were excluded by the relkind
'r' filter. Contacts map defers Leaflet init to requestAnimationFrame
so the flex container has dimensions before map initialization.
Replace the JS-built Leaflet control panel with a server-side
sidebar (desktop) and mobile floating controls. Band checkboxes,
callsign filter, and nav links now match the main propagation map
layout. Filter state managed by LiveView, pushed to JS via events.
Registered users can suggest edits to any contact's core fields
(callsigns, grids, band, mode, timestamp). Edits enter an admin
approval queue with field-by-field diff view. On approve, changes
are applied and enrichment re-enqueued if grids/band changed.
Users receive email notification on approve or reject.
Also updates dependabot.yml for mix ecosystem.
- Callsign input filters contacts where either station matches
(case-insensitive substring match, debounced 300ms)
- Band checkboxes now show per-band count of visible contacts
- All/None buttons for quick band selection
- Header count updates dynamically with filters
- Complete rewrite: rebuilds map on any filter change instead of
toggling individual layers (simpler, handles cross-filter correctly)
The sidebar and mobile floating controls overlay the dark map tiles
but inherited light theme colors, making dropdowns, inputs, and
menus invisible (white-on-white). Adding data-theme="dark" forces
all daisyUI components within these containers to use dark variants
regardless of the page's theme setting.
When clicking a grid point, fetches the latest NEXRAD composite
reflectivity and identifies rain cells within 300 km that could
enable rain scatter contacts. Shows:
- Scatter classification (excellent/good/marginal/none)
- Top 3 cells with dBZ, distance, bearing, and relative signal
- Colored circle markers on the map at rain cell locations
- Markers sized by reflectivity, colored by intensity
Uses simplified bistatic radar equation accounting for reflectivity,
frequency-dependent scattering (Rayleigh/Mie), and R^4 path loss.
NEXRAD cells sampled every ~5 km within bounding box for efficiency.
Terrain elevations now include the earth bulge correction, so the
profile visually humps up in the middle relative to the straight
LOS beam — showing how the curved earth rises into the signal path.
Uses actual k-factor from HRRR refractivity when available, otherwise
standard 4/3. For a 300 km path at k=4/3, the midpoint bulge is
~2,650 m (8,700 ft).
- Round grid-derived lat/lon in maybe_fill_latlon changeset step
- Format lat/lon to 6 decimal places on index table
- Migrate existing beacon data to 6 decimal precision
- Add comma separators to EIRP mW display (e.g. 10,000 mW)
- Extract shared add_commas helper for format_freq and format_mw
Height in feet doesn't need decimal precision. Migrates the DB
column, updates schema type, and strips trailing .0 from form
input so the integer cast succeeds.
- Add CommaNumber JS hook for live comma formatting while typing
frequency MHz in the beacon form
- Strip commas server-side before changeset validation
- Order beacon list by most recently added (desc inserted_at)
- Round lat/lon to 6 decimal places in changeset and display
- Round height_ft to integer in changeset and display
- Display coords at 6 decimal places on show page
When a contact is linked to a logged-in user account, display that
user's callsign in the Submitted column instead of a generic "Yes".
Anonymous submissions still show "Yes"; scraped contacts show an em
dash.
Add a per-entry progress bar (with cancel) while a CSV streams in, and
replace the small post-commit alert with a prominent "X contacts
submitted" confirmation card.
Drops the formal "What we're trying to do / The approach / The stack"
scaffolding for a shorter, first-person telling: line-of-sight is
wrong, here's what we're doing about it, here's what's in the box,
here's what's next. Adds a highlighted note that the scoring is
hand-calibrated and not updated in real time, with links to the
algorithm page and the submit page so readers can help close the
loop.
Contacts now carry a user_id FK to users. When a logged-in user
submits a contact (single or CSV upload), the server injects their
user_id and the email from their account into the submission params,
and the visible email input is replaced with a hidden input holding
that value — logged-in users don't have to retype their address.
The submission changeset now requires at least one of user_id or
submitter_email (rather than hard-requiring email), and email format
is only validated when one is actually present.
Reworded the submit-page blurb from "10 GHz to 241 GHz" to "902 MHz
and up" so it matches the actual band coverage of the project.
Uploads now show a review page with three summary cards (valid,
duplicates, invalid), tables for invalid and duplicate rows, and a
sample of the first 20 valid rows. Nothing is written to the database
until the user clicks "Looks good — submit N contacts".
Duplicate detection treats two rows as the same contact if they share
the same pair of (callsign, grid) tuples (direction-agnostic), the
same band, and timestamps within 60 minutes. Dedup runs against both
existing DB contacts (single band/time-scoped query) and earlier rows
in the same upload, and the preview labels which side matched.
CsvImport grows preview/2 + commit/1; the old import/2 is kept as a
thin backward-compat wrapper that skips dedup. Added 11 new CsvImport
tests and reworked the SubmitLive CSV tests for the two-step flow.
New PrivacyLive page explains that collected/submitted data is used
only for propagation research and will never be sold, traded, or
disclosed. Layouts.app now renders a small footer with the NTMS
attribution and a Privacy link on every page that uses it, so the
full-screen map pages are untouched. The duplicate NTMS credit on
the About page is removed since it now lives in the shared footer.
- Beacon map defaults to just the marker at zoom 11. A daisyUI toggle
switch shows/hides the estimated-coverage cell layer; the coverage
info line and tier legend are hidden unless the toggle is on.
- Beacon detail list replaced with a compact dl grid (2-4 columns).
Lat/lon rounded to 5 decimals, power/height/beamwidth formatted via
Beacon.format_mw/1 so no more "2.5e3" scientific notation or "280.0".
format_mw/1 hoisted onto the schema so index and show share it.
- About page no longer uses prose classes (this project doesn't load
@tailwindcss/typography). Headings, lists, and paragraphs now use
explicit utility classes so they render as intended.
Beacons can now record a directional bearing ("omni" or 0-360 degrees)
and a beamwidth in degrees. The keying list grows from {on_off, fsk}
to include FM Voice, WSPR, and the full Q65A/B/C/D/E × 15/30/60/120
family, grouped via optgroups in the submission form.
- /map now centers on the visitor's Cloudflare geolocation when the
cf-iplatitude/cf-iplongitude headers are present, falling back to DFW.
Initial HRRR score bounds track the chosen center.
- Added /about link to the /map side navigation.
- Renamed "Propagation Map" label to "Propagation Prediction Map" in
the /map page title, sidebars, and the /weather back-link.
- Populated /about with mission, approach, stack, roadmap, and a live
stat grid fed from DB counts (estimates via pg_class.reltuples for
the multi-million-row tables).
- Anonymous users can submit beacons (held pending admin approval)
- Added notes field to beacons (textarea on form, shown on detail page)
- Added Beacons link to /map sidebar nav (mobile + desktop),
removed stale Rover Planner link
- Moved /backfill to /admin/backfill under the admin live_session
- Beacon detail map zooms in two extra levels after fitBounds
