I have been working on a little program that maps WSJT activity over
time. It analyzes information in the ALL.TXT file created by wsjtx and
plots station locations on a map. The final result is a video file.
A sample video can be seen at

Color coding indicates signal strengh and mode (JT9 is 'cool' colors
and JT65 is 'warm' colors). A "CQ" is shown as a simple illuminated
grid square, while a QSO in progress is shown as a line connecting the
two stations, provided the program has been able to discover the grid
square of both stations.
Detailed callsign information is not included in the map. Only the
grid square is indicated.
Of course, so far it only includes information from my own station
(shown as a stationary white dot on the map) but conceivably it could
grow to a 'big data' sort of tool that merges logs from multiple places
around the world.
Left running long enough, it should be possible to see shifting
propagation patterns, as well as extract various statistics
Do you think this is worth persuing?
