As the images come from so many different sources that are managed by different providers, we are looking to implement a system at EFB level that checks if the file uploaded is the same as the last one and if so, then it won't be displayed and a message about the image being offline will be shown.
Thanks. Good idea.
That would be good, as this am Yarrawonga showed a missleading picture of good weather with a disclaimer “not to be used for flight planning”, but such disclaimers can be used sometimes on a valid image.
Would be preferable to show no weather image if it is not current.
