Create maps for sky/surface measurements #6

Can you give more detail description about this? What do you mean by creating maps for sky/surface? Thanks.

Sure - So right now all measurements in the DB were taken at ground level so we can display that in 2D without any concern, however we've taken a number of readings in airplanes around the world that we'd like to include, but if we just add them it will look like a reading taken in a plane flying over Tokyo was taken on the ground in Tokyo which would be very concerning. So ideally there would be an option on the map to show a data level for readings taken above 10,000 ft or something like that. Perhaps a toggle so you can see either ground OR air measurements, but not both so as not to confuse people.

Thanks for your information. Can you show me the data format of the readings you've got? For now I don't much about the data more than is a geo data that related to radiation, earthquake..

Or it would be perfect if you can just give me some sample data for me to work with, thanks a lot.
