So does that make @HankLloydRight the next Snowden? Executive Order. MIB. Game Over!If the information age has taught us nothing else, information demands to be liberated from whomever is controlling it.

I just want to add, I'm not doing this alone. I'm just the front-end guy.
The resident experts (you know who they are, do I need to name them?) are helping create a data store of this information for possible publication.

While I suspect there are people within Tesla Motors who aren't happy about the Firmware Tracker exposing what normally is an internal thing --- I haven't heard from anyone in Tesla regarding that data being "public." Certainly frequency and spread of firmware updates could be used to impute software defect rates and other unsavory things, if people were so inclined.
Would it kill Tesla to make those bars a little bit larger? Everything is getting smaller in their interface, I wish they would use more screen real estate to show things more comfortably and visibly.
Would be nice to see which cars are headed to the supercharger but that is probably not part of the public data. Your website could probably show how long each car has been plugged in assuming a first in first out algorithm.
It may not be totally accurate, but if you know one car has been there over an hour and three cars just showed up 10 minutes ago, with only five stalls, you may want to skip that charger.

The availability display updated instantly when I plugged in but when someone left their stall it took about 2 minutes to update, same when I left.

I'm guessing the data comes from one of the rooted cars/systems.

OMG! Look at all the green available SuperChargers! California needs WAYYYY more SuperChargers to keep pace; I had no idea the rest of the country had it so great! (Slightly exaggerated to counteract the "California gets too many SuperChargers" rhetoric; the distance to SuperChargers in the rest of the country is very large. I'd caution Tesla not to invest too much more into SuperChargers if they're coming out with a new charging paradigm soon.)

Connecting and disconnecting both took about 4.5 minutes to be registered for me yesterday, but it showed up at 4:25 and 4:30, so perhaps there is a ping every 5 minutes?

Well, I guess my work here is done!
Actually, I have nothing to do with this site. It's very well done. I don't know the data source or the refresh frequency. Really, no need for me to do anything else.
Thanks to whoever put that together so quickly, my weekend just suddenly freed up!
Interesting. Three Rivers, TX shows the following:
Supercharger Three Rivers, TX
US 281
Three Rivers, TX
2 of 8 stalls available, 3 also possibly available
I'm still certain there are no Teslas there. Interesting that the map acknowledges some uncertainty. I wonder what the problem is?
Wow already live, what a useful site.
Stay away from SoCal, those chargers are jam packed. Tesla will easily need to double or triple the stalls/locations in SoCal to make it into a useful feature. Same goes for the Bay area.
Interesting. Hopefully someone is logging the data so we can start building site histories and trends...
The data/site is run by Jason. He beat me to it. However, besides the map, I think it would be interesting to be able to look at historic data and trends.
Show me a list of SuCs that have been full for more than x minutes/day/week/month.
Chose an SuC and see a histogram of availability. Every block is 10 min. Green/ yellow/red. The week view would be interesting. Easy to find the busiest times.

Absolutely. I made a similar but less detailed suggestion in the other thread. It would be very interesting to see the historical trends for a site - especially if you're planning a trip and need to use a busy site to see when it's usually free.

I emailed the domain registrant email for that SuperCharger RealTime Map website to have them remove the door code to the lounges, since those are currently public on his new web site, and I don't think they should be. In case that email doesn't reach him, perhaps someone else can contact Scott or whoever made that web site so that they can have him remove the door codes from publication.
