+ | Backend:<br> | ||
+ | - export of hourly diff files with cells has been added. Diff files older than 3 days will be deleted. The diff files have the same format as the full export file. Each user can download a diff file max 3x per day. Details about the format of diff files can be found [http://wiki.opencellid.org/wiki/Menu_map_view#database here]<br> | ||
+ | - an additional mechanism has been implemented that limits the API read requests to 1000 read operations per day for all users without a special agreement with OpenCellID.<br> | ||
+ | - psc/pci values has been added to the cell data. This data is now also added to the file of exported cells and in the affected API requests. Details can be found [http://wiki.opencellid.org/wiki/API here]<br> | ||
+ | - the range (radius) of each cell has been added to the cell export CSV file as well as to the affected API requests. Currently the data provided here in most of cells is not valid. This column will be filled with accurate data after the database cleanup which is planned later this year.<br> | ||
+ | - duplicate measurements are filtered out. If two consecutive measurements for the same cell have the same coordinates, then second measurement will be filtered out.<br> | ||
+ | - collaboration with the [http://location.services.mozilla.com Mozilla Location Service] project. The format of export cells files is unified for the both projects. The same filters for newly incoming measurements are applied in OpenCellID as in MLS, in particular filters based on the geographical location. Currently the cells data provided by OpenCellID is not fully compatible with MLS' data, because of missing range values. It will be fixed after the database cleanup which is planned later this year. It is also planned later this year to import MLS' cells to OpenCellID and enhance OpenCellID's cells database. Details about the format of export cells files can be found [http://wiki.opencellid.org/wiki/Menu_map_view#database here]<br> | ||
+ | - Newly incoming measurements are assumed to be suspected if they are more than 150km away from current average cell position. Before the DB cleanup, the filter will be enabled only for precise cells, because calculated cells might currently have wrong coordinates. After the DB cleanup, we will apply the filter for all cells.<br> | ||
+ | - MCC of incoming data is verified now according to geographical location: in case the MCC of a measurement does not match with the country the measurements GPS coordinate is pointing to, then the measurement is treated to be suspected. For now a square around each country is used with a distance to the country border of 40 km to 100km depending on the latitude.<br> | ||
+ | It is planned to improve this validation in 2015 and to use accurate country border data.<br> | ||
