Balloon tracking using TTN

Good evening Janos,
It was a good flight but unfortunately the balloon heated up in the morning when the sun came up, rose up by 2000m and burst. It seems to have come down on top of a hill with lots of trees. And now it has stopped transmitting. The last packet we received is below. That is the most precise gps location value we are receiving from the tracker. I don’t think it is worth hunting it down because it is probably high on a tree. The balloon is a qualatex 36 inch balloon with “Happy Birthday” written on it.

{
  "analog_in_3": 0.17,
  "barometric_pressure_0": 936,
  "digital_out_4": 8,
  "gps_2": {
    "altitude": 729,
    "latitude": 48.6573,
    "longitude": 19.2984
  },
  "temperature_1": 12.3
}

I will add you as a collaborator and so you can see any new packets that arrive on the console.
