Roger did a pretty good job of getting the program code for generating sun and moon location data merged into the EPmap program. A little fine tuning still needs to be done, but not too much. The latest EPmap project might involve translating a program called Etgtab into TrueBaasic language code from either Fortran or Basic. Etgtab is a freeware program that was written by someone who I believe was a famous German geophycisist who passed away a while back. If not a geophycisist then he was at least some type of internationally recognized physics expert. I myself have been using his program for years. Etgtab can generate various Solid Earth Tide related data such as tide heights and vertical and horizontal acceleration at different locations around the world. You specify latitude, longitude, depth, and time window and it generates wave data for those values. I seem to remember that it can also generate ocean tide data. If so then that would make it even more valuable. EPmap could then display those data for any location on the planet with the Time Mode earthquake and precursor data.
