New BandConfig entries for 902, 1296, 2304, 3456, 5760 MHz:
- All beneficial humidity effect (like 10 GHz)
- Near-zero gaseous absorption and rain attenuation
- Ranges: 902 MHz typical 400 km, 5760 MHz typical 220 km
- Same seasonal curves as 10 GHz (ducting-driven)
BandConfig.band_options/0 generates dropdown options from configs.
All pages (path, rover, submit) use centralized band_options instead
of hardcoded lists. Map page already used BandConfig.all_bands().
10 GHz remains the default on all pages.
- Extract scoring logic to Microwaveprop.Rover.Coverage for testability
- Two-phase computation: fast pass (distance + propagation) for all grids,
then SRTM terrain analysis for top 20 candidates only
- Cap search radius to 300 km to keep candidate count reasonable
- Run terrain analysis in Task with rescue/fallback for resilience
- Background Task doesn't block LiveView process
- 5 tests covering: ranked results, empty inputs, station details,
band range differences, field presence
When ASOS/RAOB/IEMRE APIs return empty data, store a stub record so
dedup checks (has_surface_observations?, has_sounding?, has_iemre_observation?)
see coverage and don't recreate the same jobs on future backfill runs.
Backfill dashboard now has checkboxes to select which enrichment types
to process (HRRR, Weather, Terrain, IEMRE). Prevents weather jobs from
flooding the queue when only HRRR needs work.
- Fix score_pressure crash on nil pressure_mb (coastal HRRR points)
- Set 10-min timeout on grid score upsert transaction (was :infinity)
- Single DELETE for prune_old_scores instead of N queries in a loop
- Remove dead load_hrrr_refractivity that loaded 95k rows into nil map
- Pass selected_time to point_detail to skip latest_valid_time sub-query
- Batch station existence checks (1 query per path point, not per station)
- Batch solar index upserts via insert_all in chunks of 500
- Batch backfill_distances via single UPDATE FROM VALUES statement
- Add is_grid_point boolean + partial index to hrrr_profiles (replaces
non-sargable modular arithmetic filter on every weather map query)
- Add partial index on contacts(qso_timestamp) WHERE pos1 IS NOT NULL
- Move backfill enqueue to Oban worker so UI returns immediately
- Unified queue_info helper shows "(N jobs in queue)" on all spinners

- All code and tests updated to use contact_id
- Radio.ensure_positions!/1 computes pos1/pos2/distance from grids
- Called in contact show page mount and enqueue_for_contact
- Migration backfills positions for existing contacts missing them
- Migration corrects enrichment statuses based on actual data presence
- Backfill dashboard includes contacts with grids but no positions
- New fields: hrrr_status, weather_status, terrain_status, iemre_status
with values: pending, queued, processing, complete, failed, unavailable
- EnrichmentStatus module defines valid state transitions
- Migration backfills: queued=true → complete, false → pending
- Workers set status on transitions (queued on enqueue, complete on finish)
- Show page reads status from contact struct, not computed dynamically
- Backfill dashboard queries status fields for accurate progress counts
- Remove cron-scheduled ContactWeatherEnqueueWorker (enrichment only on
submission, page view, or manual backfill)
- Partial indexes on status != 'complete' for fast unprocessed lookups
- HRRR and terrain workers broadcast via PubSub on completion
- Contact show page subscribes and recomputes elevation profile,
propagation analysis, and HRRR data on receipt
- Page updates in-place without reload when background jobs finish
- Add timex ~> 3.7, downgrade gettext to ~> 0.26 for compatibility
- Parse ISO 8601, US dates (M/D/YYYY), AM/PM, 24h, compact formats
- 22 tests covering all accepted timestamp formats and edge cases
- Integration tests for CSV import with US date and space-separated formats
Adds a tabbed UI with single-contact form and CSV upload. Users can
download a sample CSV, upload their file, and get partial import with
per-row error reporting. Enrichment jobs enqueue for each imported contact.
- Leaflet map on contact detail pages showing both station locations
- SRTM elevation profile with Chart.js: terrain, LOS, Fresnel zone
- Path info: distance, azimuth, elevation angle in both directions
- Compact 4-column grid layout for contact details
- Contact map page with all contacts plotted
- Rename QSOs to Contacts in page header

- Add info box on submit page explaining why contacts matter
- Larger submit button with icon
- Make HRRR partition migration idempotent for partial re-runs
Rename all modules, functions, variables, routes, and UI text from
qso/qsos to contact/contacts. Database table stays as "qsos" to avoid
migration. Add /qsos -> /contacts redirects for old URLs.
ML Integration:
- Load trained model at app startup, cache compiled predict fn in persistent_term
- Grid worker uses batched ML prediction (10K chunks) when model loaded,
falls back to algorithm scorer when not
- ML score replaces composite, algorithm factor scores preserved for detail view
- Fix process explosion: single EXLA call per chunk instead of per-grid-point
QSO Features:
- Callsign search (ILIKE on station1/station2) with trigram indexes
- Reciprocal QSO grouping (same pair, same band, same hour)
- Wider layout (max-w-7xl) for data table pages
- QSO Training Data link on map page
Infrastructure:
- Re-enable hourly propagation grid worker in dev
- Track ML model weights in git for Docker builds
- Add btree indexes on qsos (timestamp, band, distance_km)
- Remove nav icons from layout header
Add SFI, Kp max (solar), K-index, lifted index (sounding stability),
and ducting_detected (HRRR) as model features. Training now joins to
solar_indices and nearest sounding (within 6 hours) for both phases.
Model can learn solar/geomagnetic effects if they exist in the data.
- 15 features: add surface_refractivity and latitude
- Bigger network: 128→64→32 (3 hidden layers)
- Phase 1: pretrain on 500K stratified algorithm scores (all seasons/locations)
- Phase 2: fine-tune on 57K real QSO-HRRR matched data (percentile target)
- Lower LR (0.0003) for fine-tuning to preserve pretrained knowledge
- Model.train accepts :initial_state option for transfer learning
- 3 hidden layers instead of 2 for better feature interaction learning
- Target is within-band distance percentile (0-1) instead of raw
normalized distance — reduces noise from operator/equipment variation
Raw features had vastly different scales (pressure ~1013, sin/cos ~[-1,1])
causing gradient explosion. Normalize all atmospheric features to ~[0,1]
using known physical bounds. Add Polaris dep for optimizer.
Score time-of-day per grid point using longitude/15 solar offset instead of
hardcoded CST/CDT. Add PWAT as 10th scoring factor. Refine pressure thresholds.
Update ML model and training pipeline to use local solar time.
Previous thresholds (-500 to -60) were calibrated for radiosonde data.
HRRR profiles have coarser vertical resolution, with gradients clustering
between -40 and -130 N/km (median -70). Nearly all grid points were
falling through to the default score of 42, wasting the refractivity
factor. New thresholds (-200 to -40) spread across HRRR percentiles.
- Replace piecewise knife-edge loss with P.526-16 Eq. 31 single formula
- Fix diffraction parameter ν to use standard formula instead of ad-hoc approximation
- Implement Deygout 3-edge method for multiple obstacle diffraction

- Update algo.md with P.526-16 methods and k-factor table
- Fix pre-existing map_live_test antenna height default (33 ft, not 8)
Replace generic range circles with actual LOS coverage polygon computed
from SRTM elevation data. Casts 180 rays (every 2 degrees) from the
clicked point, runs Fresnel/diffraction analysis on each, and renders
the reachable area as a Leaflet polygon.
- Viewshed module with haversine forward, terrain sweep, async compute
- Antenna height control (default 8 ft) in map panel
- LiveView start_async/handle_async for non-blocking computation
- Remove signal icon from band selector
- Add enqueue_for_qso/1 to directly enqueue weather/HRRR/terrain/IEMRE
jobs for a single user-submitted QSO (no cron, no bulk processing)
- Submit flow calls enqueue_for_qso instead of generic enqueue worker
- Add enrichment queues to prod config for on-demand processing
- Guard against HRRR fill values in store_hrrr_profiles (fixes badarith)
- Filter QSOs without pos2 in build_terrain_jobs
- Port grid square rendering from gridmap-web with toggle control
- Consolidate band selector, grid toggle, data timestamp, and links
into unified control panel
- Add "How this works" (/algo) and "Submit a QSO" (/submit) links
- Add back-to-map link on algo page
- Darken range circles for visibility over propagation overlay
- Fix popup blocking double-click zoom with pointer-events passthrough
- Prevent control panel from intercepting map click/scroll events
Click anywhere on the propagation map to see a detailed popup with:
- Overall score and tier label with color

- All 9 scoring factors with visual bar charts, individual scores,
and weight percentages
- Grid point coordinates and data timestamp
Factors are displayed in weight order so users can immediately see
which atmospheric conditions are driving the prediction.
