- 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
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.
- 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
- Add dynamic k-factor from HRRR refractivity gradient (falls back to 4/3)
- Terrain worker now looks up nearest HRRR profile for atmospheric correction
- 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)
20 attempts with exponential backoff capped at 6 hours ensures
data is eventually fetched even during extended rate limiting or
API outages (~3 days of retrying before giving up).
Fetch elevation data along the path between two stations via the
Open-Meteo Elevation API (with Open-Topo-Data fallback), compute
Fresnel zone clearance, earth bulge, and knife-edge diffraction loss,
and store the results per QSO.
- terrain_profiles table with migration and TerrainProfile schema
- ElevationClient with batched API calls and fallback
- TerrainAnalysis with Fresnel/diffraction physics (ITU-R P.526-15)
- TerrainProfileWorker on Oban :terrain queue
- QsoWeatherEnqueueWorker enqueues terrain jobs automatically
- QSO show page displays verdict badge and collapsible elevation table
- Reorder show page: terrain, soundings, solar, HRRR, surface obs
- Fix Dockerfile wgrib2 build (add cmake dependency)
