This was prompted by the realization that Wikimedia Maps was no longer permitting third-party usage.\nI replaced it with Yandex Maps, which doesn\u2019t require an API key either for non-commercial use. I may additional Yandex services in future.\nI also added Geoapify as a map provider\u2026I may also add in its geocoding service in future.\nOpen Route Service, as it is an open initiative, is now supported as a geolocation/elevation provider.\u00a0 I like to support any open source options when I can.\nPreliminary Moon Phase calculation, though the formula is not up to my standards and needs to be replaced. I spent 20 minutes on it and I spent a week learning enough about how to adjust the sunrise and sunset based on location and elevation.\nIn the last major update to Simple Location, 4.1, I added in additional icon sets. In this version, I redid the presentation of all of the widgets to show additional properties and standardized all the widgets so they use the same display logic.\nSo what is next:\nIn a previous version, I switched to storing everything in metric(meters, celsius, etc).\u00a0 I already convert back to imperial measurement for temperature if the configuration option is set. I still need to do so for other metrics\u2026as I\u2019m showing visibility and rain in metric still. I need to do the same on the backend. But as someone who uses Fahrenheit and Feet\u2026I would use this.\nI also continue to think of what other weather parameters I can offer and display. Heat index, dewpoint, which are derived from the humidity and temperature, would be relatively easy to answer.\nBeing able to pull in station data from my own weather station is still a goal. The issue with this is designing an implementation that is not limited to working only with my setup, and always pulls from my endpoint except if they are not available.\nI have the concept of zones for location, which are areas around a location. Anything inside of a zone will be hidden on a post, and the label replaced with the zone name.\nA long time ago, I declared I wanted to add venues for location, which would essentially be to allow for archive pages for locations.\nNow I\u2019m looking at stations, which would be a fixed weather location.\n\nThe above three things are too similar for me to feel comfortable going any further till I think about this. Zones may need to stay separate, as they are a privacy matter. But stations and venues are both public items\u2026but no one posts from a weather station\u2026they might post from a venue\u2026so maybe I should build stations regardless.\nIf I do build the station model, it would likely merge custom stations like mine with station IDs from the Met Office, National Weather Service, OpenWeatherMap and AerisWeather, as well as any future services that support weather stations, and allow those to be kept in a list. It would then have to determine if it was close to such a station\u2026and use that data. Not quite sure how to do that simply.\n\u00a0",
