I see a link on the web page for a google map of existing mesh nodes which doesn't work.

Why bother creating a static map that somebody needs to keep current? it would be easier to either setup an aprs beacon announcing the presence of a mesh node similar to the way voice and digis ID, or to create an APRS-IS feed to dump the node info into the internet stream where it could be easily found. The web sites already exist to display the data and in the event of poor/no internet, the RF beacon would still work. Even if you dump the coordinates only onto the APRS-IS, a reverse IGate should spit them out on RF for field visibility.


Thoughts?

The post with the old URL got me too. The link in the menu to the left seems to work though.
