Hark, a new map! The fun has been doubled!
South Dakota becomes the latest state to receive my mapping graces, in collaboration with PugetSoundStormWatch. The initial content focuses on the I-90 corridor, as that's where I've actually been in person (twice, as a matter of fact, but the first time was before I became interested in sirens). I'll gradually be adding locations from the old SD Siren NetWork map as time goes on...and of course, please feel free to send in locations I've missed!
The South Dakota map is the debut of an updated schema for pin colors, icons and the like - it will probably not be backported to existing maps, simply because I don't feel like blowing an entire weekend converting at least 1500, probably 2000 or more, locations. You will see it on any future maps I do, though.
There's also a rather large Virginia update today, but with only a few new sirens - rather, this update focuses on older photos I never added for whatever reason. And boy, are there are a lot of them...check around the North Anna system, Fort Eustis, and the US 460 corridor from Petersburg to Suffolk. There's also photos of the sirens in Opal and Reynolds Store.
Also, the speaker arrays in Fort Eustis have been identified as ADT ClearVoices. The cell counts on the Modulators there have also been corrected - they are 3012s. The Linden mystery has also been added.
Coming up next...perhaps another new map, perhaps some more updates. Who knows? I sure don't!
(Oh, and by the way, the SD map is not the result of the challenge I issued for the IRC party last week. 4J25 won that, but he hasn't given me his choice yet.)
