DogeBox: Dogemap Service

Dogemap is a DogeBox service that crawls the Dogecoin network and maintains a map of Dogecoin nodes.

---

How it works?

After installing and running the service, it will start collecting all Dogecoin nodes worldwide and store them in a local database. Then, the map will load that database and populate with all nodes, retrieving the coordinates for each node's IP address from a public IP Internet Service Provider database. The DogeMap service will check every 10 minutes if the existing nodes are still active and will remove those that are inactive from the map. It will also track all nodes' software versions running and can be filtered accordingly.
