MTSatellite to life.
To use it you have to configure your Minetest server to use the Redis backend data store.
Instead of a real Redis server you have to run **mtredisalize**. This server stores the data

Instead of a real Redis server you have to run **mtredisalize**. The data itself is not stored in a Redis server. It only uses the Redis protocol to communicate with the MT server. The data
is stored in an optimized form in a LevelDB or SQLite3 database. Changes made to the world are collected over a configurable amount
of time periodically. After a cycle of collection the web server **mtwebmapper** is triggered
to regenerate the map. To not fully regenerate the whole world map but only the differences
the map has to be pre-rendered with **mtseeder**.
* [mtredisalize](https://bitbucket.org/s_l_teichmann/mtsatellite/src/default/cmd/mtredisalize) is a server which has to be configured as a Redis backend to the
Minetest server. It stores the data in an opitimized form to make updates of the pre-rendered map fast.
It is also used to track the changes made to the world. They are aggregated over
a defined time interval and then send to the mtwebmapper server.
