I've been working with a fellow coder to develop a new market reporting site that has an emphasis on cross-region reporting.
There is a lot in the works as far as the site goes. Check out the dev blog for more details. Feel free to poke around the site and give us some feedback.
Is the data accurate? Is it useful in any way? How out of date are the orders? What would you like to see developed next?

You've got a couple of bugs in your search page.
For example, searching for Avatar (for which there are obviously no market orders) produces a bunch of division by zero errors.
Searching for #System produces even more MySQL errors.
You should check the value of mysql_num_rows($result), and if it is < 1, display a message stating "No market data".

Thanks for the good feedback. I'll write up some 0 checking code and audit for #System and Avatar. |

Edited by: Blake Armitage on 11/06/2009 22:05:00 In a week or so we will be releasing the voting feature on market orders. So if you see an outdated order, you will be able to 'downvote' it -- think Digg or Reddit for Eve. Stay tuned!

Any plans on creating an API similar to what EVE Central has?
I'd be more than happy to add EVE Market Report as an additional source of information to my EWA. And I'm pretty sure other apps like EMMA would do as well. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Looks very nice. Useful features imaginatively presented.
How do you intend to upload order data in future, and will you use cache (like EVE Metrics) or market logs? If the latter, how will you ensure people arenŠt submitting fake information?
I donŠt see the point of voting on out-of-date orders. CanŠt you just delete them? Besides, that could be open to abuse.

We're planning on setting up an account based system where you have to login to vote on orders. This will enable us to make sure that only 1 user can have 1 vote on 1 order.
Importing: Right now our data is coming from Eve-central. We're planning on opening up or database for user submitted CSV files and eventually, design a uploader program like Eve-metrics. As far as submitting false or modified data, we don't have a solution for that right now. An idea that I have is that an order is put in the database only when 2 independent sources upload it. |

Yes we are looking to develop an API. I'm learning now to do XML data in and out with PHP right now. |

It is very nice indeed :) although i do think a good suggestion would be to put on the avg sell / buy prices for the major trade hubs. JITA / RENS etc
I take it that it is yet not possible to upload data to help out filling your site with info ?

Looks good. I will be keeping a close eye on this. I would be interested to know like has been asked before the upload method being used. I don't like metric as it grabs everything without asking you. I like the location graphs, as that is something I have been working on myself.
Couple of points/questions;
Will you be allowing filters by region, age of data and outliners ? (especially to exclude jita bias) Will you monitor account uploaders, so you can see who ? Will you be generating up suggested uploads for market gaps ? Would, unlike eve central, will be generating trend graphs for items, even if it is similar to eve's own graphs ?

If you need help with this, feel free to contact me. Once you start getting your own data, I may be interested in pulling your data for use in some of my apps. Also, are you planning on pulling data from eve-metrics as well?

As I understand it most of the logic is done in JS on the client side; with some extra scripts (Say, using Greasemonkey) you should be able to write addons to the site pretty simply to do filtering.. |

Yes, sorry I've been out of town for a good week.
We have a major release coming up within the next 2 weeks. We are going to be adding the ability for you to create an account, add items to a sidebar vote on market orders and browse our entire order database with a few simple clicks.
For the back end, we've made our own modular PHP framework which has improved performance, tightened up the statistic queries that generate averages. I also have some other reports in the works such as a Alliance-Rare Moon and Industry dashboard.
I've got a post about the new user sidebar up here Link |

Is there any idea on generating graphs for historical views, like the eve market graph? If so, i'd like some SVG graphs, which are easy to generate and drawn on the client's computer (native in firefox, adobe plugin with iexplore).

Yes we are planning on some cute graphs. I haven't started on this part of the project.
We actually just deployed our new framework last night.

Just a quick question.
How is it you get all the data to put in if there is no user upload tool yet ?

It would be helpful to see the reporting date for each order, like eve central does. Without it its impossible to get an idea on the accuracy of the data.
