- Add auth links (login/logout/settings) to sidebar
- Wrap public live routes in live_session with UserAuth on_mount
- Use daisyUI menu lists for sidebar navigation
Interactive map-based tool for planning rover operating positions.
Rovers enter stationary stations they want to work, then click the
map to evaluate candidate operating grids.
Features:
- Add stationary stations by callsign or grid square
- Click map to add operating positions (snaps to Maidenhead grid)
- Async SRTM terrain analysis: each stop computes terrain profile
to every station, shows CLEAR/BLOCKED verdict + diffraction loss
- Terrain lines on map: green=workable, red=blocked, dashed=marginal
- Propagation score and 18-hour forecast sparkline per stop
- Route summary: driving distance, unique grid-station pairs
- Band selector affects range limits and propagation scores
- Numbered waypoint markers with score-colored backgrounds
New files:
- Geo module (shared haversine/bearing, used by PathLive too)
- RoverLive with fullscreen map + sidebar
- RoverMap JS hook with grid overlay, station/stop markers, route line
- Nav links in header and map control panel
LiveView page for analyzing microwave propagation between two points.
Features:
- Source/destination input: callsign (via gridmap.org API) or Maidenhead grid

Collapsible control panel with hamburger toggle, detail panel as
bottom sheet, compact legend moved to top-right, and scaled timeline
buttons for narrow viewports.

- Make HRRR partition migration idempotent for partial re-runs
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
- point_detail response includes forecast array (score per valid_time)
- SVG sparkline shows score trend across all forecast hours
- Trend indicator: Improving/Declining/Steady based on first vs last score
- Add covering index (band_mhz, lat, lon, valid_time) INCLUDE (score) for
point_forecast queries
- HrrrClient.hrrr_url accepts forecast_hour param (wrfsfcfHH.grib2)
- PropagationGridWorker fetches all 19 forecast hours per run
- Propagation.scores_at/3 queries scores at specific valid_time
- Propagation.available_valid_times/1 returns all forecast times for timeline
- Pruning keeps scores with valid_time >= now - 2h (forecast-aware)
- MapLive: select_time event, timeline data pushed to JS
- JS: forecast timeline bar at bottom of map with clickable hour buttons
- PubSub broadcast sends list of valid_times instead of single time
- Add phx-update="ignore" to detail-panel so LiveView patches don't wipe it
- Re-request point_detail after scores update to refresh with new data
- Range circles persist across updates since they're on a separate layer
- Viewshed uses propagation score to set max range (ducting/NLOS distance)
- Terrain checked within radio horizon; clear paths get full atmospheric range
- Detail panel moves from map popup to sidebar for better visibility
- Panel shows instantly on click with loading state
- Dark opaque background for readability over map
- Factor analysis section explains each score with contextual descriptions
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
- Remove factors from heatmap scores, fetch on-demand via point_detail
- Pre-encode initial scores JSON once instead of per-render
- Don't store scores in socket assigns (reduce memory)
- Pre-calculate RGBA color lookup table for canvas rendering
- Batch fillStyle changes, hoist math out of inner loop
- Show topbar immediately on data requests (no 300ms delay)
- 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
- Scores now include factors and valid_time in the viewport query,
eliminating the server round-trip for popups
- Click shows two range circles: solid inner (typical range) and
dashed outer (max estimated range), colored by score tier
- Circles disappear when popup closes
- Band info pushed to client on band switch for accurate range estimates
Click anywhere on the propagation map to see a detailed popup with:
- Overall score and tier label with color
- Estimated range for the selected band (CW mode)
- 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.
The JS hook sends map bounds on load and on pan/zoom. The server
queries only scores within those bounds, dramatically reducing the
payload for band switches and map updates. At zoom 7 (DFW area)
this sends ~2k scores instead of ~95k.
Vendor Leaflet 1.9.4 (JS, CSS, marker images) and wire it into
the esbuild/Tailwind asset pipeline. Create MapLive with band
selector buttons, auto-refresh, and a colocated JS hook that
renders propagation scores as color-coded circle markers with a
legend. Stub Propagation context and BandConfig modules provide
the data interface for the scoring pipeline.
Add nav bar with links to Map, QSOs, and Submit pages.
