In the radars map, clicking a marker reveals a pop-up window that may contain a thumbnail image. These images come primarily from these sources:
- Wikipedia
- The DEWLine
- Fortwiki
- NADRM Online Radar Museum
- U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force documents and websites
- Various veterans groups on social media
We're trying to make these pages display pleasingly on small screen devices so we're keeping text to a minimum in the pop-ups. In the future, we'll have these thumbnail images link to the full size image on the websites where they were found.
