-With every new technology, a bridge to non-technical people should be provided as well. batman-adv is being used in routers of every-day users, that do not have an insight in the B.A.T.M.A.N. routing protocol itself, nevertheless a good visualization can widely increase the acceptance of a new technology and get young people interested in it. batman-adv has a built in vis-server which produces a raw dot-file when activated. With the help of graphviz-tools, those dot-files can be rendered as graphs which are still more interesting for 'technical' people. It would be great to have a tool that maps the information provided by the dot-output and additional geo coordinates in Google-Maps or OpenStreetMap (OpenLayers) in realtime. Then 'normal' people could then find out and solve dead zones without technical support all on their own without having to be able to use fancy command line tools. This feature would be useful for anyone administrating (parts of) a mesh network. +With every new technology, a bridge to non-technical people should be provided as well. batman-adv is being used in routers of every-day users, that do not have an insight in the B.A.T.M.A.N. routing protocol itself, nevertheless a good visualization can widely increase the acceptance of a new technology and get young people interested in it. batman-adv has a built in vis-server which produces a raw dot-file when activated.
