@lolobyte
Thank you for the links.
For central america I found the following source the most usefull. Unfortunately it’s only available in high resulution.

Has anybody found more usefull sources by now?

@SvenSommer That is the exact image I found as well. Any chance we could make this work @LukeCodewalker?

@Burner911 sure :) should be straight forward. I you know how to do it feel free to make a pull request. If not I can have a look at the weekend if I find some time.

@LukeCodewalker Thank you for helping out! I’m still stumbling along with the code, but if you have time to add the new http://goes.gsfc.nasa.gov/goescolor/goeseast/overview2/color_lrg/latestfull.jpg image this weekend that would be awesome.

@LukeCodewalker, @Burner911
I just integrated the ‘centralAmericaDiscNat’ option and made a pull request.

Burner911

@SvenSommer You’re fast! Thank you!

@LukeCodewalker
First, thanks for the great module!

I’m having an issue with the module when I specify ‘ownImagePath’. The image is retrieved and displayed properly but does not update. I’ve tried several different external image sources with the same result.

Is it possible that there’s a caching issue?

Thanks,
Renfield

LukeCodewalker

@Renfield the module does only update the pre-defined satellite images. I did not implement that for own images. But that could be changed quickly. Do you think you can do that on your own or do you need help?

Renfield

I’m new to javascript but that’s what I thought I saw in the code (that the user images were purely static). I tried appending
?+ new Date().getTime();
to the image pull but probably due to an error on my part still couldn’t get the user-defined images to force a refresh on each update to the DOM. I’m in the early stages of learning javascript so it’s still a bit frustrating at times.

If you could add the fresh image retrieval functionality for user images to a future update that would be much appreciated but there’s no hurry. Should I put a “formal” request in the Requests forum?

Thanks,
Renfield

@lolobyte it’s in German, maybe is this better :-) https://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/NASA-Satellit-GOES-16-Erste-beeindruckende-Fotos-der-Erde-3607307.html?wt_mc=rss.ho.beitrag.atom&hg=1&hgi=0&hgf=false
