Feature request: Highlight latest point? #70

Open djhedges opened 4 years ago

djhedges commented 4 years ago

A video may be worth a thousand words. I'm working on a hobby project which involves using a Raspberry Pi as a telemetry system for a race car. The goal is to graph metrics in real time. Graphing the car's location would be extremely useful for endurance racing. I'm 99% there. https://youtu.be/joWSMB6zanM

The "GPS Location" panel correctly renders the latest GPS point with the following query. SELECT speed, last(geohash) FROM point

The "Racing Line" panel renders the track layout nicely with this query. Where a lap is ~90s long at this track. SELECT speed, geohash FROM point WHERE time >= now() - 90s

Note I'm using the grafana/worldmap-panel plugin atm. It sounds like it's been deprecated in favor of this fork. Which also being rewritten atm. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I really want to combine the two panels into one. Render the track layout/most recent points while being able to distinguish the latest position. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Dear @djhedges,

thanks for writing in and sorry for the delay. From reading your request, do you believe the Track Panel [1] by @alexandrainst would fit your needs better than a generic Map Panel? However, we are also tracking a "live data / real-time" feature at https://github.com/panodata/grafana-map-panel/issues/38.

With kind regards, Andreas.
