Thanks ! Awesome work ! :) Makes it waaay easier to check up on load shedding times than the actual site !

One request if you're up to it (or in the mood) : Load shedding times summary in a tooltip when the user hovers over an area. Example : User hovers over Brackenfell area (with map set for today) Tooltip displays : Wednesday Stage 1 : n/a Stage 2 : 14:00 to 16:30 Stage 3 : 00:00 to 02:30 14:00 to 16:30 20:00 to 22:30

Learned something today: "load shedding" and "feeder rotation" are synonymous with "rolling blackouts".

This map shows where in Cape Town the power will be off at any given time. Cool. Nice use of the tools and data available.
