Offline web viewer

There is an option to run the web viewer without relying on online libraries. This facilitates using the web interface whilst traveling without an internet connection. The steps are simple. First, go to your home directory (say /home/jasper) and clone the necessary offline web assets:

git clone https://github.com/jvde-github/webassets.git
This will create a directory webassets that we need to share with AIS-catcher as an alternative location for online web content with the CDN argument followed by the location of the web assets directory:
AIS-catcher -N 8100 CDN /home/jasper/webassets
Offline maps can also be included in mbtiles format:
AIS-catcher  -N 8100 MBTILES filename.mbtiles
or as an overlay
AIS-catcher  -N 8100 MBOVERLAY filename.mbtiles
