Edited by: Serenity Steele on 28/07/2006 06:42:12

There is new a resource called 'Outpost Alert', which lists: - Alliance Ranking by number of outposts controlled - All built outposts - How many of each type have been built so far
Updated once a week, you can also get emails when new ones are spotted.
If there is sufficient interest, a combined ranking of Outposts/Sovereignty/Members Count will be posted up and maintained weekly.
Enjoy! |

They aren't confused, it's deliberate. Regardless of who built it, it's useful (IMO) to know who holds it. 
I'll get a ranking with the two separated out. |

Edited by: Serenity Steele on 28/07/2006 16:50:05 Well the info is updated once per week
If anyone would prefer to keep disclosing a new outpost location private, feel free to evemail me (still working on the online form for that).

Thanks for the feedback.
Filters for hiding/showing Conquerable stations are now on the listings. ASCN still lead by a longer margin. |

Originally by: BimmelBommel http://www.ombeve.co.uk/ - if i would be ombey, i would truly rip your heart off with a spoon cause thats such a rip off of his work. you deserve nada isk for that.
The maps from Ombey are an excellent online resource for the Community. You're not the first person to mention this to me, and Ombey has not contacted me regarding the issue.
The Eve Strategic Maps are entire original, in concept, method of production, style, layout and data source. The only resemblence between the two maps is that they are, well, both maps.
The original series of Black & White Maps that evolved and developed into Eve Maps were created over 1 year before Ombey's character even started playing Eve.

Originally by: Ombey You've got mail 
Were the original B+W maps released to the community at large BTW? Would've saved me a lot of time if I'd known about them!
Replied!
The original B&W Maps were pre-smuggler gates, limited to selected regions and considered 'Valuable Intelligence', so only released to the Corp at the time.
I pulled all the old B&W files when Eve Strategic Maps became a serious endeavour, however there are undoubtedly a number of players with the B&W still on their Hard-drive. |

Edited by: Serenity Steele on 04/08/2006 17:25:25 There is now a filter to include/exclude conquerable stations on rankings.
Added a count of total outposts per region. The most heavily developed by region is Feythabolis.
300+ players have subscribed to Outpost Alert and/or info on The Eve Strategic Map book now, and the outpost alert service will go live Monday.
The first email alert was delayed due to finishing coding on an unsubscribe feature. (IMO, It is only right to send emails, when there is an automated method to unsubscribe - in some countries it's even a legal requirement ).

Originally by: Elisa Day In response to the latest outpost alert mail: Yes! A section about which outposts changed hands recently would be very nice!
Second, the ISS Tycho outpost in ZXIC-7 has the Gallente outpost picture, but it's an Amarr factory outpost.
Thanks for the feedback, I've corrected the ZXIC-7 Outpost.

Originally by: Troubadour ... also, the 2d maps thing is a great idea. make sure you wirebind them though so they can lay flat without creasing. I can think of a million situations where having a strategic 2d layout of a region right in front of me could help, rather then fiddling with the ingame map. Maybe include a sheet of little stickers to stick on systems in your mapbook when new outposts are added.
Thanks for the feedback. The Eve Strategic Map Book will be released as wirebound, for exactly the reason you mention.
On the stickers, this is a good idea. Part of the motivation behind Outpost Alert! was to identify at what rate new outposts were being built, and determine if stickers would be needed. The second reason is to work out the ratio of sticker types for the different outpost services!

Outpost Alert #004 is on it's way :)
I'm considering adding a feature of an 'Alliance' development Index to the web-site. The idea is to create an index with different 'points' for each of: - Outposts - Sov Systems - Alliance Members Count
Would this information be interesting to you?

Originally by: Johnathan Roark Nice work!
I would like to see a break down of how many outpost each alliance has per region. Want to know how dense each region is. Also, outpost per capita would be interesting.
For region density by clicking on sort by region, scroll through the list.
For the outpost per capita, this functionality will be available soon(tm)

Originally by: Garramon So, what is the process for submitting updates?
The outpost alert listings are updated in their entirety once per week (both who owns what outpost, plus all new outposts added).
If you would like to report a change of ownership/new outpost in-between updates, please: - Message me (Serenity Steele) in-game with the system name. - I'll take a look at the outpost to verify - Update the database
There is a feature coded to report online, but I haven't made it public yet, as It's for release with some other new features like History of Ownership for each outpost. An announcement will be made in the newsletter when that feature is launched. It maybe a subscriber only feature :)

Originally by: Amira Silvermist Is there an estimated date when the book will be released? What price is your aim?
Cant wait to get my hands on that book! 
The target date for release is before FanFest (ie. 9th November 06).
The pricing can't be released yet, as additional features have been added and are pending the final print quotation (eg. special custom stickers for marking new player built outposts built and some (currently sekrit) additional stuff).
Very, very soon(tm) all will be announced on the web site, and newsletter subscribers will receive an email with full details!

... can you possibly add to your maps a precious minerals filter (yes I know it is a lot of work!), to show all us noobah's where to go for the crokite, mercoxit and crap! ...
Sounds like an interesting challenge 
Is it the ore (mercoxite, bistot, arkanor, crokite) that is most important, or just the presence of Zydrine, Megacyte and Morphite?

Originally by: Vyktor Abyss Personally I'd like to see where the rare ores are on maps.
This info is readily available at http://www.fluidorbit.co.uk/ in tables, it just needs adding graphically to maps to further complete the strategic picture of what alliances are actually protecting.
Cheers, Vyk.
Thanks for the source. I have a second one, so I can cross-check the two.
The graphical part is the trick - I'm just about at the limit of options to display additional data, while enabling the reader to identify points of interest in 'one-glance'. That said, the majority of regions with those ores are relatively bare of stations, so may work.
No promises, as it's pretty close to print deadline, but I'll certainly see what I can do. It's only 5.1k systems to update hehe

Originally by: Xeliya Edited by: Xeliya on 30/10/2006 12:00:20 The outpost in PNQY-Y you might as well just put neutral for the next week or 2 while ASCN/Celest play station ping pong with Xelas.
I'll have the option to have it 'contested' in the future.
At the moment, the database only supports information at a static sample points in time (targetted typically just before the weekend hits for alliance weekend ops), rather than provide a 'current territorial' information.
A work-around will be adding the 'report an outpost conquered' option, which I will be able to code after Fanfest - busy days, nights and mornings until then

Originally by: Elisa Day Will the printed book include the new regions in kali as well as the jumps into them (as can currently be seen on the test server)?
Yes, the book includes Map pages for the new Kali regions, as well as the jumps, and the Kali map pages also include systems from neighbouring regions where it's <4 jumps to the nearest station (or outpost in the case of Vale of the Silent).

Thanks Eol!
Originally by: Mace Ardguy According to their posts in other threads, is it true that BoB 'owns' that many outposts/stations? Many are owned by FIX and Xelas. This is going to change back and forth a lot over the coming months - many will just have to be marked as 'contested'. Looking forward to the book, though - the previews on the site are mouth-watering stuff.
Yes this is true about BoB ownership (follow my sig to the leaderboard).
The weekly reports show who currently owns it, so "Contested" isn't actually a status. Ownership is 9/10s of the law after all  I'll try get the history + enable a 'I 0wnd it today' option onto the site before end of the month. (also been asked for RSS and XML feeds, so quite a lot to fit into the 2 weeks!)

Thanks  Hopefully the release version will impress even more. The maps have advanced alot since the EON Mid-2006 advert and FanFest prototypes - now showing; Roid counts Moon counts Ice fields Station services Complexes, Cosmos & Beacons True sec status Neighbouring region important systems All jumps to orphaned constellations (like in querious, esoteria ...)
Previews will be up of the release version very, very, very (did I say very?) soon(tm).

Edited by: Serenity Steele on 10/03/2007 19:53:06 :( Sorry I didn't double-check the build list.
Originally by: zykerx btw how do yo get the info about the new outposts ingame ? ccp heloping ya with that orso ? as i asume ya not looking on the map if theres a station somewere that wasnt there before o.0
Well since you asked .. CCP haven't helped me at all (also not for the Maps)
Here's how I do it: I look at the map, and visually count total stations in every region and match against recorded totals. Then I add new outposts into the database I then search/show info on every corp that owns 1+ outpost, and check they still have the station listed in settled systems. If they no longer own it, I work out who currently owns it and add the history into the database For any alliances that control a station, I then either find their logo, beg on the forums for one, or make a simple ticker icon Then I export all the current subscriber email addresses (to ensure people who unsubscribe never get the email)
After all that is done; The HTML Newsletter is automatically generated with machine-generated comments about what happened I then edit the comments manually to give some experienced perspective The text part of the mime email (for people without HTML email clients) is then automatically generated. [*]I run a test mail send to my Gmail and POP3 accounts, make sure it all looks good, checking for text style etc
Then the personalised emails are sent using mass-emailing software, which takes about 20 minutes to send them all out
Total Time: 2hrs
I need to setup some forms so people can report changes themselves and I then just verify. This probably won't save any time for ensuring accuracy, but would get the conquering/build dates to the nearest day rather than week.
I'm sure some Eve-Junkies would like to know daily :)

Originally by: Graalum BWF has been in RK hands for a week, and only achieved sovereignty today, how is it that BWF shows as an ISS outpost but shows RK sovereignty already? Further, how does it happen that the 8MG station next door shows as a smash station already when it was captured *after* bwf? 
Short version: It's fixed.
Long Version: It comes down to a problem with the EvE Client that displays old show-info data. It has happened before, but usually fixes itself in a few days. Usually I go visit the system if it persists. Generally if I can guess the new owner corp, I can grab the data from Settled systems.
However, a week is a bit extreme and travelling early sunday morning it out of the question. So, I just dumped my cache folder and seems to have solved the problem :)
Stats should show correctly.

Originally by: JaoTom Mao don't know if this is the right place for this or not, but....the last outpost update, as far as I can tell the only hostile outpost takeover was MC's of D2's, the rest are posted as hostile but were actually friendly deals, atleast the TCF "taking" R97 from Ka-tet was, and pretty sure the others were as well.

Yes, this is as good place to mention it. TCF taking the SOHO station was definately hostile. TCF confirmed now the Ka-Tet deal was friendly. Thanks for the correction.

If one doesn't know all the alliance logos it can be hard to quickly tell who dropped a new outpost since some logos lack an identifying name or abbreviation. Logos are cool to have on there, but the name would be kind of nice aswell.

Really looking forward to the book but I've got to admit I would prefer it with a white background so I can annotate it with a dry-wipe marker / highlighter.
Manina, I would entirely agree with you, however I tested the paper coating and it's possible to draw on it with pretty much anything (incl. silver/white) if CCP go with my recommendation :)

Edited by: Serenity Steele on 08/06/2007 21:20:30 Edit: Comment on earliest data in system
Originally by: Adm Tecumseh fyi, Corm Built k-9 station in November 2005 making it somewhere in the neighbourhood of 75-80 weeks not 18 that you haev written there. They have owned that station since it was built and sov has never been lost.
Adm, thanks for flagging this. The Nr of weeks held refers to the combination of Alliance and Corp. CoRM has been in RMF alliance since January. The data I have at the moment only extends back to 14th July 2007.
Here is the holding data I have:
Alliance Corp Start Finish ASCN CORM 14/07/2006 13/01/2007 RMF CORM 13/01/2007
At the moment, the rankings are alliance-centric, hence it's shown this way. On the other hand, the fact that outposts held by two different corps in the same alliance is a bug that needs fixing.
Which reminds me .. reporting history of an outpost would be nice.

Originally by: Vishnej Edited by: Vishnej on 08/06/2007 04:55:17 PURE's 90 day pilot graph is way off - it looks like you stopped collecting data a month and a half ago.
Thanks for letting me know Vishnej . It's fixed now.
It was a bug that got the graph 'stuck' on member count at 28th April when graphing the remaining member data. It could only effect alliance that still have members, and 5 alliances were effected, all fixed.

- See sov levels listed for each system and in graphs
Several alliances have sov level 2 now. (click an alliance logo or chart)
- Easier to track your ascendancy to power (or your enemies defeat!):
Ranking numbers added so it's easy to track your alliances position.

also maybe a graph to show total numberof 0.0 stations over time so we can get feel for how fast infrustucture in 0.0 is expanding.
Well here is a start: I've made a graph of outposts over time; totals per type per month :) (This is on the "Outpost Types" page)

The Outpost Alert #038 sent out a couple of hours ago contains an error.
The following was reported incorrectly: Minmatar Refinery in Detorid, System 5H-SM2 built by Tau Ceti Federation [CSUP]
There is no station at that system. I will be checking out why this went wrong and adding some additonal cross-check database queries to ensure this doesn't happen again.
My apologies to the Tau Ceti Federation for this error.

To keep a window of opportunity for Outpost Alert! Newsletter subscribers, there will be a 2-4 week lag before it appears on the site. I'll remove this when RSS syndication is implemented.

Solo freighter handled the deploy with a small alliance gate camp a few jumps out for security. ;)
Congratulations on your 'new toy'; I'll set the date to be exact.
I'm redesigning the site at the moment so as to allow people to report their own builds to hit closer to the exact date. (I'll still verify manually before they show on the rankings.)

Edit: Yeah, yeah, I know, COAD and all that, but I'm on topic and the topic is not exactly COAD specific... :P
This is an error in the ranking total calculation for constellation sovereignty on teh site. The goons are currently assaulting the RISE constellation with sovereignty and it incorrectly shows them having an additional constellation.
I'm just about finished re-coding the site for performance improvement, which includes a fix for this sovereignty issue. Clicking on goon-swarm to drill down into the data will show that it's only 1 system = Assault on Constellation.

Originally by: Gentle Glide We have liberated a new outpost, why isnt it listed as ours?
It is updated manually so don't rush things. If you want to speed the process up send a mail to Serenity. Just be nice.
PS. It's UEJX-G station. PS2. BTW Serenity isn't it possible to make the whole process automatic using CCP API? It would save you a lot of work.
AFAIK the CCP API only covers Sovereignty and Alliance information, the version 2.0 to provide outpost ownership information isn't released yet (pls let me know if it is!)
I do use the existing API information to tell me 'where to look', which is quite efficient.
Once the API 2.0 is up and running, the whole update will be automated, until then I do the manual check as close to down-time as work permits.

I found the bug; Ka-Tet alliance folded according the the .XML information from EvE, leaving a bunch of outposts with null-values for alliances IDs. My code really didn't like that.
I will fix it tonight/this weekend.

Originally by: Scrapple I noticed the Ka-tet bug so I looked around at most of the other regions.
Cloud ring appears to be throwing a bug, 2 different alliances are holding sov of the same station. The spire is also 'not showing up' and throwing the WTF h4x bug. Oasa is showing 5 stations when there are only 4 (two of the same that are counting towards the totals) Period Basis has 2 different stations appearing twice each, throwing a bug.
Finally all 'new' stations are not showing the 'orbit' they are at. Don't know if this is API issue or what, just figured I'd list it with the other stuff.
Cheers Scrapple.
I checked the underlying data in the tables, and it's ok. The problem is with the display queries. Most of them are due to table joins etc. and the Null values with fall of Ka-Tet.
Orbit info isn't in the API - so will have to add that to my regular to-do list :)

(It did not effect the totals displayed per region or the database record of the ouposts) - Fixed bug where outposts held by corporations without an alliance caused the outpost listings to crash (whether by region or otherwise)

Thanks for the information. I'll update it in the archive. Usually I don't have an opportunity to chase all the transfers, however your point makes me think of the value in enabling people to submit their own comments via the IGB. Thanks for the idea!

There is a database problem with the hosting provider on the site right now, I'm hoping to resolve it in the next 12 hours.

Hosting company (FastHosts) has an Engineer looking at it now. I'll give 'em another 8hrs or so before trying something more drastic.

The next Outpost Alert will be on 13th may, as I'm off on a short holiday break after finishing the Empyrean Age update to the map book.

Originally by: Havok Pierce Edited by: Havok Pierce on 29/05/2008 00:33:27 One complaint about the EVE Strategic Maps: The last page is just a E-ON ad. I would have appreciated an index of all of the systems and/or constellations (showing page name and grid location) greatly. Otherwise, they look great.
I mean, no map is complete without an index >.>. I might put one together myself.
On the website, you can download the index/grid refs :)

Originally by: Vladimir Antlerkov Can't be bothered to read the entire thread again, but this has been bugging me for a while: Z-N9IP in Impass is double-counted in the by-region and by-station-type totals.
Thanks for letting me know. I've identified the reason for the duplicate entry, and you will see the correct information on the site in the next 24hrs.

I've had a request to show all non-sovereign systems to help out budding alliances to find a place in 0.0, so have added the feature

Originally by: Vladimir Antlerkov Edited by: Vladimir Antlerkov on 05/06/2008 23:11:56 Edited by: Vladimir Antlerkov on 05/06/2008 23:11:32 QCWA-Z in Branch is shown twice on its region page and in the list of all outposts, once for Stella Polar and once for Stella Polaris. (Unlike the glitch with Z-N, this isn't affecting any overall totals. If the two alliances have the same ticker, then that's probably the reason for the glitch, since one of them is supposed to have disbanded some time ago.)
As usual, excellent work.
Thanks. I found it .. was indeed the duplicate of the Alliance Ticker, and it's fixed. Thanks for pointing it out!

Originally by: Hey You Awesome service. Also a question. Would it be possible to include history graphs on Members, Sov Systems and Outposts for more then 90 Days time frame.
I think it would be interesting to see that information for lot of alliances 2+ years back not just 3 months.
Thanks.
Yes, it's possible and a good idea, however a little difficult without me changing the database due to performance issues (I hadn't anticipated 600+ active alliances when I first wrote the site and didn't do much query optimisation). I keep the data in a second db at the moment as an archive.
I've started migrating to a new DB on my beta test site, but it's not complete yet. I'll make an announcement when it's ready in Outpost Alert!.

Originally by: Iolowin Nice work ! And the paper maps are awesome too..
Just a small glitch to report, in the "outpost update" page. While going through the (still rather short !) list for new outposts and placing my little yellow stickers, I noticed that 66TenerifisT-AKQZ[G1] is erroneous. The coordinates should read [G12]
I'm sure it's nothing too serious to fix...
Great job !
Thanks. I think it's a field length clipping issue. I'll get on it. I'm very glad you're the stickers are working out!

Originally by: Dinife found another page 23, b8, actee is a .5 and its red for low security.

Thanks. The security status information is driven from the database, so correct. Regrettably I didn't have a checking query on colours of system :( |

Originally by: Acironsalt please excuse my noobness for interjecting, but I've always thought that system security in EVE only goes from 0.0 to 1.0, whereas the map legend clearly displays system security from 1.0 to -1.0. how does that work? 
System security is displayed in the game as rounded to 1 decimal place, Starting at +1.0 is clipped at 0.0 , so anything lower just shows as 0.0. However the security statuses actually have >5 decimal places and go all the way down to -1.0,
This range +1.0 to -1.0 and multiple decimal places is referred to as "Truesec" ie. The True security status.
For the purposes of Strategic planning, 1 decimal place is sufficient if you show the entire range +1.0 to -1.0, hence why this was chosen for the maps.

Originally by: Saldoro Are the Outpost Alert emails coming back? Hasn't been one since April. I know you're busy with the new CSM stuff but hoping you can squeeze in time for this awesome resource. Also there are Outposts built in the past month or so not showing up in your rankings? Hopefuully the Outpost API (if there is one) isn't broken like the POS API.
Yes, they're coming back! The last one that went out was jammed by my ISP I think (still trying to sort that).
From what I can see the new outposts are showing up on the rankings fine (Eg. BOB went from 28 to 30 outposts in the last few weeks).

Thanks.
Yes, thanks for the feedback and noted.

The site has had some troubles over the last 2 days, due to the hosting provider reducing the time to run scripts on the server. I've compensated by further optimizing the code and database and the rankings are all up and running again.

Originally by: Dinife did anyone check the maps before they where printed? Genesis regions 7 errors in color. everyshore 1,essence 3. but they are .4 that are green or .5 that are red, so if this was automated check your programing.
Thanks for giving feedback on this. Yes, it's been picked up on before - I missed programming a query to check colour against security status. The good news is that security statuses are directly from the DB (not entered by hand).

Originally by: Cerias Shadows Just a heads up
http://www.eve-maps.com/outpostalert/alliancechart.asp?FilterType=Alliance&FilterBy=AGONY
Is no longer accurate. The Alliance had to be reformed as there is a bug that seems to cause an alliance to up and be disbanded. We reformed the alliance since our petition does not seem to be getting any answers from CCP. It may take some deleting of the old instance of Agony Empire (the one with the logo and changing it for the one with out the logo...) Also our logo stayed the same. If you would like to transfer that over to. Who knows maybe well have SOV 3 before CCP gets to our petition. LOL.
~CS
Thanks, I'll check it out. Re-creating alliances does mess with the results quite badly. I'll sort it out over the coming days after I'm done with the survey.

Originally by: Tactikill Map error 
P42 Kedama gate shows P06 C3 as the gate location on the next page. It's actually in F6. P11 has the same error for Kedama gate. Same thing with the reference to the Teimo gate from P11.
Thanks, the query generating the grid-refs is fixed in the new version, which is due back from the printer this friday :)

Originally by: Ice Baby Is the poster you get with the book rolled? I could love to put it on the wall if it was.
The poster that comes with the book is folded. The folds are pretty soft (at least in the one I received).
CCP have promised to make it possible to order just the poster in rolled form separately. Rolled posters are printed on heavier paper, and are couriered in a tube and a fixed price including postage and packaging. So it's just waiting for CCP to add it to the store.

Originally by: NokNok At the Alliance ranking could you put this on top of the page, instead of at the bottom? A bit easier to see when it's been updated then :)
Data Refreshed: Alliance Members & Sovereighty 08/10/2008 . Outposts 08/10/2008 .
Will add it to the list :) I'm meant to have be working on porting it to a new db, with better performance, at which point it will be up-to-date in hours rather than down-times. Now that books/posters/new version is done, and my CSM term is almost up, I'll get onto it again and do all the things I've been wanting to do for a year :)
