Now we are down safely I am starting a map thread. Everything that happens during 2021 will be covered in my still-in-progress atlas, so I have to make the maps for that and everyone can follow as they evolve.
Let me know if any feature names start to show up. Preliminary map even though not much has happened yet. But if you look closely you will see something, even now. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

For the Google Mars track, there's now an automatic update ability available for the client side. What this means is that Google Mars will check for an update every 6 hours (while GM is open) or you can manually refresh the track. This will download the track from my server. However, the track on my server is still only updated manually by me running a script so there will be some (human induced) latency until I fully automate the back-end (which will be soon).
Download & open track-updater.kmz and move it to the "mars2020" folder on the GM side panel. You can delete the old "track sols 2-16" folder. The new "track-updater" folder will automatically refresh in the future. To manually refresh, there's a refresh menu item when right-clicking track-updater. If you want, you can change the refresh interval or disable it by going to the Properties>Refresh tab. Here's a look at the current track: Note: While all the waypoints and traverses are displayed correctly, they are listed out of order on the side panel. This will be fixed in the next automatic refresh now that I've studied the json data a little closer. Mark |
