Plot track in flight reports #489

Open lkluft opened 2 months ago

lkluft commented 2 months ago

Since both the aircraft position and the GOES satellite image are freely available, we should consider automatically rendering the flight track in the flight reports instead of including it as a static asset.

I agree.. is there a template that one could use to do this for all flights? Should we do this as video? The only downside is that the download of the GOES is heavy.

lkluft commented 2 months ago

Creating the video is definitely too heavy for a function that runs during the build. However, we could include a script to create and insert the flight tracks. I guess that the challenging part is to make the data available in the CI (see #491)
