These captures display jump gate activity throughout the EVE Universe for the weekend starting 19th April. Size and color of the ellipses are directly relevant to the amount of activations jump gates in that system have had, red being the highest, and a light orange being the lowest. The systems with the highest number of jumps are displayed as a large ellipse, layered in order of the highest at the bottom of the pile, to the least at the top, so as to display all systems.
This is an on-going project, and I will be feeding in further information to refine the display, such as kill data, security status, region etc, to make the map more informative, and easier to read at a glance. My hope is that these maps will be of use to Alliances for keeping watch on possible troop movements / combat operations in and around their space.
Other future improvements will be the automatic generation of animated maps spanning custom time-scales, region / constellation specific maps, as well as alerts (if this little experiment moves that far forward).
