Anonymous IGC upload and analysis #118

Closed samuel-git closed 2 years ago

samuel-git commented 3 years ago

I was thinking it might be possible to upload another pilot's IGC file into WeGlide the same way it can be done on SeeYou's software. If another pilot has publicly posted their IGC file on OLC then their permission is not needed to view the flight file. Similarly, if their IGC file is posted on the contest website then their file is available for viewing on SeeYou and other software.

Regards

@Cubdriver406 https://github.com/Cubdriver406 We can not safely identify a pilot on the IGC file alone. We sadly can not provide a feature to upload flights for other pilots due to potential for abuse. It is possible to upload flights for registered pilots if you know their name and date of birth and have their consent to upload in their name. Just log out of weglide and try to upload.

This would be a cool feature as not everyone is signed up with WeGlide.

It is a little bit against our philosophy of open sharing of information as these flights would be kind of private with a coded URL.

So it is a lower priority at the moment until we find a good solution.
