CUSF standalone predictor

Working on improving the Cambridge University Spaceflight landing predictor, used for predicting the flight path and landing location of latex balloon.

Install

The source for the standalone predictor is somewhere where nobody can find it, that'll be here when I can get hold of it. The GFS/DAP predictor is in the pred_src directory and building instructions can be found there.

The webserver needs to have a connection timeout of 30+. The GFS data needs to be updated regularly, that script is part of the hourly predictor here.

Credit as detailed in individual files, but notably:

Rich Wareham - The new predictor and the hourly predictor system
Rob Anderson - The GRIB predictor
And Fergus Noble, Ed Moore and many others
