CUSF standalone predictor
Working on improving the Cambridge University Spaceflight landing predictor, used for predicting the flight path and landing location of latex balloons.
Install
The source for the prediction software itself is in pred_src and instructions for building it can be found there.
The ./preds directory needs to have rwx access by the PHP interpreter and the get_wind_data.py python script.
Information
A cronjob should be run to delete directories in the preds directory after a given number of days, perhaps 7 or 10.
The directory names are UUIDs comprised of an SHA1 hash of the launch parameters, and re-running predictions will overwrite data in the existing directory, rather than create a new one.
