The City of Amsterdam's verkeersinformatiesystemen register lists where
its ~500 traffic and ANPR cameras stand, with type and asset number, but
publishes no pictures. That fits a Data Library dataset better than a
CCTV pack: the register answers GeoJSON in WGS84 with CORS headers, so
the entry fetches it browser-direct with no proxy code.
The register names no licence ("public unless stated otherwise"), so the
entry stays operator opt-in, as #251 had it. The dataset and the
position-only camera idea come from @Maher-Reven's #251, which this
replaces; the entry lists them as maintainer and in its attribution.

DATA LAYERS keeps its curated core layers; regional and niche sources
live in the Data Library, opened from Browse data library at the foot
of the panel. Each entry is a JSON manifest in src/library/entries/
pointing at a live upstream (query API, provider-hosted file or tile
endpoint), so nothing is bundled and a self-hosted instance hosts no
data. Sources without CORS go through one allowlisted /api/library
route. Kinds: dataset (GeoJSON, CSV, JSON records, ArcGIS, partitioned
GeoParquet), tiles (XYZ, WMS/ArcGIS bbox export, terrarium relief) and
pack. Selections persist and travel in share links as lib=, separate
from the core layer tokens. Library rows get Zoom and Remove icon
chips that work while the layer is off, rendered through RailChips.
Strings are translated in every locale.
Zoomed out, a hotspot's reports give way to its beacon, and the cards an application draws through pictureCards went with them; they came back only once the camera had stopped after zooming in. The cards now come from every report the close-up view would mark, at any height; the layer's own markers and beacons are unchanged.
The browser stamped every trip-updates answer as just read. While an
operator's feed fails, the rail proxy replays its last good copy for up to
ten minutes, and a cached copy can be a TTL old, so those delays never
reached RAIL_UPDATES_MAX_AGE_MS and a selected train's card showed them as
current. Delays now take their age from the snapshot's fetchedAt (capped
at now), as positions do in ingestion.js, so they stop applying 75 s after
the server last read the operator.
TaM publishes km/h where GTFS-Realtime asks m/s, and the Transit layer's
entry for the same feed already sets speedUnit: 'km/h'. The Rail entry did
not, so the proxy passed the readings through and the card multiplied them
by 3.6 again: a tram at 30 km/h read about 108 km/h. A registry test now
requires a Rail feed that Transit also reads to declare the same unit.
createNewsLayer takes a pictureCards(cards, { selectedId }) function; createApplicationCatalog passes it through newsOptions. With it, the layer paints no picture cards of its own and hands the function one card per pictured event on the map, most severe then newest first, with the selected report's id; it hands no cards when the layer turns off.
Shorter comments, changelog and CURRENT-STATE text for the 502 outage
path; the CURRENT-STATE paragraph now also names the 429 exception and
which budget expiry answers busy and which answers 502. Text only.
Core's catalog passes worldClock.timeFor('news') as the layer's now, so a host that follows the clock for News can show a past time's reports with their ages, window and counts as they were then. Core does not follow the clock for the layer, so it keeps reading the wall clock.
Live trains from 30 keyless operator feeds: GPS positions from 29 and
Irish Rail's station reports, shown as the operators publish them. 28
work out of the box; Renfe long and medium distance and KTMB appear once
their pack is built, because their vehicles name no route.
Packs are opt-in (scripts/build-rail-paths.mjs): the operator's own
route lines, stop names, next stops and trip-update delays for live
trains. Nothing downloads when the app starts, no train is placed from a
timetable, and no request carries a deployer's key.
Applying the rest of a posted view after the camera was taken during its
terrain wait still let it change the camera: stop_tracking dropped a follow
the user had just started, and annotate_map framed the view's marks. A
camera taken during the wait now ends the view again, as before. The 2 s
terrain timeout and the per-view catch on the queue stay.
- The look-at longitude wraps fully, so a tilted camera at a pole gives a
point on the globe. The strict off-globe check on street_level is undone:
points are clamped again, as before.
- A posted view that fails is answered, and the views behind it still apply.
- A posted view waits at most 2 s for the terrain under its camera, then
keeps its own estimate.
- A camera taken during that wait stays where it is: the rest of the view
applies, and only its photos stand down.
- show_street_level keeps a search or a press on the globe made during its
own flight: it adopts only its own navigation stamps on landing, and a
gesture is never forgiven.
Main added a Swedish catalog in #1630, so the catalog test failed on the
strings this PR adds. They use the catalog's terms (Gatunivå, nyckel,
bilder på gatunivå, vyns mitt).
- Releasing a held viewer frees the old source's adapter without resetting
the panel, so a replacement's error, outcome and armed OPEN survive; a
cross-source replacement drops the old photo's details and marker.
- The action holds the open photo only for its own switch-off: a source
switched by hand during the load stops it and reports cancelled.
- A posted view waiting on terrain watches the camera and stands down after a
navigation or a globe press; a flat or straight-down camera asks no terrain.
- An arming link opens the panel without persisting the layout, and a posted
view's street-level step runs as programmatic.
- An off-globe street_level point throws TypeError.
- zh-Hant uses the file's wording for the new strings; README and
CURRENT-STATE count 35 tools.
Translate the 148 strings main added since (mostly the News layer) and
prune the 5 it no longer uses; keep both Hebrew and Swedish in the
language lists.
- SECURITY.md: OPEN also takes the link's point when the screen centre
cannot be picked at all.
- TOOLS.md: the panel's own link opens Street View only for a result issued
in the last five minutes; an older one only arms.
- Changelog: the hiding modes stop a request, collapsing the panel does not;
failure cards are in the interface language.
- CURRENT-STATE: a posted view without a point grounds its look-at too.
show_in_gods_eye_view measured a view's altitude from the terrain before
taking the point the camera looks at; a view posted straight into the
embedded app used the ellipsoid altitude, so a camera over high ground
opened photos kilometres ahead. groundedLookAt moves to the view module,
and the embedded app uses it with the app's terrain heights for a posted
street_level that names no point.
A provider that threw while geocoding (offline, an upstream down) escaped
the action as a bare error. show_street_level now reports it as its
location stage ("Could not arrive at …", the cause in detail), and nothing
is switched or looked up; fly_to_location itself is unchanged.
The voice card showed English for show_street_level failures the catalog
did not know: a missing key, a map or source that could not be switched on,
the layer, invalid coordinates, an imagery fallback and the filter clause.
They now translate like the other action errors (exact messages and
patterns in speech.js), in all twelve languages; the spoken line stays
English, and the filter clause names the filters as their chips do.
- The cloud brightness key is a filter, not a brightness scale.
- Counted lines without a plural form read "label: count", so 1 agrees.
- Fire confidence is «tillförlitlighet», not «säkerhet».
- Agreement with «flöde» and «luftfartyg»; course on the tracking line is
«FÄRDRIKTNING», which fits both aircraft and ships.
- Wildlife is «Artobservationer», since the layer also shows plants and fungi.
- Bridge readouts are nouns (BLICK, ÖGONHÖJD), cockpit key hints share one
verb form, tool names in pointer messages are quoted, and «jfr» replaces
«jmf.»; the guide's example follows.
- Smaller wording and consistency fixes across the catalog.
GDELT exports are read in parallel, so two reports with the same time
arrived in whichever order their exports finished, and the feed test that
pages through them failed now and then. Same-time reports now order by
most mentions, then by id.
A weather feed may also be a frame source. With an optional
getFrameImage({ product, time, size, bbox, signal }) the layers take
whole-extent images, detail windows and the global mosaic from it; with an
optional getFrameTile({ product, time, z, x, y, size, signal }) regional
tiles and their prefetch come from it, null being a transparent tile. Pixels
may be an ImageBitmap, ImageData, canvas or VideoFrame of exactly the
requested size; the layer draws them once and closes them. Cancellation
reaches the source, and a feed without these methods reads the image and
tile routes as before.
