Feature Request: if not specified, get location from public IP address #1

Closed vvanouytsel closed 1 year ago

If the user does not pass the required coordinates, we should use his approximate location instead. We could do this by finding the public IP address and see where it originates from.

Now that I think of it, this looks like a stupid feature. The approximate location based on IP is not even close, so what is the point? Better to just default to a location with a high chance of spotting aircraft, such as an airbase/airport.

Closing.
