Map 2.0

It would really useful if one could see the LINKS in addition to the nodes that are running AREDN.  This requires figuring out what to do about mesh groups that do not have any Internet connection.  But 10 nodes on 5 different bands in my basement - while impressive - is not as useful as a single pair of nodes with 30 miles in between them.  It would be really useful to see these links on a map - then others would have some idea if they might be able to join in.

yup
I would use a yellow line for the links given all the greenery we have back east here.
How are you going to get the actual link info?  Is it "live" or will people upload it when they can?

It will be uploaded when you
It will be uploaded when you hit the "Upload Data to AREDN Servers" button (along with your GPS info, etc).
Colors are still TBD, but, yes, the dark colors are not good.

Yes!
Ues, the links between pins showing connections is great. What would be even greater benefit would be able to click to pins to get a quick feasibility of an RF link given the topo info contained with Google Maps.

knowing I have a tower in a location and seeing another that might be a neighbor if I were to place a node pointing I that direction would be a powerful tool in determining if one moves forward with greater research.
