Constantly and it depends on the product. Anywhere from every five minutes, hourly, bi-daily, and daily.
| What are your data sources? |
|
Maps are created via our in-house custom mapping software developed over several years. No GIS, no shapefiles. Map elements come from a variety of sources. Check out
Iowa State University. mPING reports are gathered using the
mPING API.
| Why are map backgrounds often white? |
|
So we can add notes or draw on them without it becoming a color overload.
