droidicus 0 Posted August 6 Report Share Posted August 6 I am looking for recommendations for flying fields, and found http://www.kitemap.org/ through this site. Unfortunately the map is showing up with a spinning wheel and a blank box. Also, if I go directly to a like for a location I am getting a "Error 404 - Page not found!" error. Is the site still functional? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

John Barresi 5,562 Posted August 6 Report Share Posted August 6 Aye, we're having issues with the Google API - are likely than not, KiteMap will be phased out soon. 😢 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Is the data on the locations also stuck behind the Google API issues? Even just having a flat list of locations, or grouped my state/country with links to the individual pages would be invaluable. The map is really nice to have, but the data itself is more valuable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Barresi 5,562 Posted August 6 Report Share Posted August 6 Andy Scott (UK) is the technical mind behind the site, I provided only consultation and hosting aspects - as I understand it the API interface has changed to favor "charge for usage" and eliminated some of the free functionality KiteMap was built on. *hands in the air* Quote Link to post Share on other sites
frob 196 Posted August 9 Report Share Posted August 9 While the library has evolved, it is still open. If he isn't updating it, would it be possible to open it up for others to update? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
