A recent post to the APRSSIG (about usefulness to EOC type users) got me thinking, and I wonder if we would be better served by a different way to select the stations displayed on the map?

The basic idea would be to allow the user to select/deselect _any_type of station for viewing based on station type, so for example, if one wanted to see only WX, fire trucks, and ambulances, the view could be reduced to that.

I guess the simplest interface would be a grid of icons, pretty much exactly like the one that allows you to choose your station icon, that would allow the user to select which type of stations would be displayed. Maybe refinements could be the ability to display full data (as currently selected for callsign/speed/heading/age/wx data/etc), icon only, or no display, would be useful (haven't thought so much about that one).
