I just saw this thread linked in /r/teslamotors. Could you add Radar Alerts to the list?

I've been tinkering with a little experiment to calculate stats for 0-60, quarter mile time, and other stats via a web app used with the Tesla web browser. Because the browser API for the GPS only updates at 1Hz, the actual values need to be interpolated. I need the help of anyone and everyone...

Ahh... Sorry for the confusion. No, I was referring to the "radar cone" display within the app. It's the aqua blue/green shaded area on the radar and map. In the screenshot below, you can see one alert that's within the radar cone and appears as a red warning. The others that are to the...

No, the web browser has no API to access CAN data. The Tesla browser uses the standard W3C geolocation API that most other browsers also implement.

@AMPUP I pushed an update to Radar Alerts this morning that adds in other incident types to the map. There are buttons on the left side of the map that allow you to toggle the different types of incidents. Blue indicates they are enabled, and if you tap them, they will go gray and disable...

You can try out Radar Alerts for free for 15 days, and see how you like it. The monthly subscription fee is $4.99 after the trial expires. If it's not for you, you can cancel right from the app. Right now it only shows police reports, but I'll be adding other incident types soon (accidents...

No, I haven't "enabled" it to work in mobile browsers, since most users with mobile devices would just opt to use Waze instead. I wish Model 3 had a browser, it would have opened up a whole new market for Radar Alerts.

Hmm, that sounds like it may be a bug. You should only get the red/blue flash when alerts are within a mile or less than 60 seconds away. If you see that again, see if you can safely snap a pic, and email it to info at ev-radar dot com. I'm working on adding other alerts. What I'm planning...

I'm here! :) The alert pop ups will appear when an alert is within the radar cone, and is less than 1 mile away or has an ETA of less than a minute. In order to try to reduce the number of false positives when travelling on highways, when the vehicle speed exceeds 55 mph (88 km/h), the radar...

It is only provides police reports. The Tesla nav does a good job of providing traffic data. Go Gators! :) Unfortunately, after processing fees, commissions, hosting fees, etc., I don't have a whole lot of room to drop the price much more and make some profit. Perhaps at some point I may...

In the past few months, the app did indeed have some issues. First, Google changed their map API and it broke the display of the markers on the map. I replaced Google Maps with Mapbox, and that resolved the map marker issue. Soon after fixing the map marker issues, I started receiving reports...

You'd think we'd know better by now.

:( Hopefully at some point this week then. Does it look as though all of the construction/installation work is complete?

It's quite roomy inside as well. The cabin doesn't seem that much smaller than Model S.

At the Model 3 event on Friday at Aventura, they announced the Brickell City Centre urban supercharger was going online "this week". She said that on Friday, so I'm not exactly sure what she meant by it. Did anyone check it out this weekend by chance?
