Sub ticket of #17

one of the javascript files is called analytics.js, which is a name that most/all adblockers will prevent from loading. This breaks the data page, so that the map is not shown, nor the stats at the top.

Renaming the file to something differents, maybe stats.js should be enough to fix the issue.

Currently there is a google-doc explaining the api.

This could be either handled directly in this repository or we could link it to a documentation in the python-backend-workers repository.

Instead of manually updating the HTML pages, we should complete the setup initiated by Raphaelle when she rebuilt the site.

In short, it could look like this:

• edit the "source files" (all the xxxx.shtml) locally
• run gulp build to generate the actual HTML files under a subfolder ( say docs)
• push the result to github, which would then deploy the site from this subfolder

The structure for this is already in the source-code branch, but we've diverged a little with the commits from 2019-10-10 in master.

To fix this:

• setup npm on your laptop (it's installed with node.js, for OSX, get the installer from https://nodejs.org/en/download/ (use the "LTS" version)
• in a terminal, you should be able to run npm -v and see something like 12.16.2
• from there, go to the folder where you've cloned this git repo, and run npm install to install all the dependencies required to build the pages (the dependencies are installed in a folder called node_modules)
• once completed, you should be able to run gulp develop in the same folder. It will start a small local webserver, and show you the url (something like http://localhost:8000) to open to see the local version of the site (if its not working, try node_modules/.bin/gulp develop)
• change any of the .Shtml files, save, and the local site will rebuild itself automatically
• when you're happy with the changes, run gulp build, commit your changes to the .shtml and docs/*.html files (do not commit the node_modules folder), and push to github (and open a PR)

Once that workflow is working ok, I would suggest "backporting" the changes made in master to the source-code branch, pushing everything, and create a PR to make that workflow the normal one. We'll need to modify how github deploys the site at this point, but we can figure this out later.

Refined scope of #20

Numbers can be got from the Mapswipe-Backend API. To be added to the homepage or data page?

Example numbers:

• Area mapped
• Number of users
• Projects completed
• Features found

Right now the way a new project can be created in Mapwipe is by using the import.html page on the mapswipe website. Everbody can create a project there and those information will be send to Firebase. We check then on the backend if the provided submission key is valid. There exists only one valid submission key. So everybody uses the same key.
This is in multiple ways bad practise (We need to give non autheticated write access in the firebase; Their exists only one submission key for multiple project admins)

Before sending data from the import formular to firebase project admins should autheticate to firebase directly using their mapswipe account. If so they can create a project, otherwise not. Submission keys would not be needed anymore. But there needs to be information on the user wether the user is a project admin or not in firebase (firebase authetication).

For how to implement this look at how to "Easily add sign-in to your Web app with FirebaseUI":

• https://firebase.google.com/docs/auth/web/firebaseui
• https://github.com/firebase/firebaseui-web

Bring all MapSwipe analytics into the main mapswipe.org site.

Data can be pulled from the API, so this is an opportunity to redesign the tools and host them on mapswipe.org - having everything in one place and saving some maintenance.

This is just a ticket to aggregate them all. Please only close this once all the linked ones are closed.

Precompiled code should be available for all future devs

Create a Resources site with following sections

• Insights
  • Key numbers
    • Those numbers can be get from the Mapswipe-Backend API
    • Open an issue at the Mapswipe-Backend repository if more numbers are needed
  • Link to https://mapswipe.heigit.org/home/
• Training
  • https://mapswipe.heigit.org/tutorial/
  • https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/MapSwipe_guidance:_interpreting_satellite_imagery
• Mapswipeathon

Sub-ticket of: #17

I would like to upload MapSwipe icon to Wikimedia commons, similar to Missing Maps icon. However, I am not completely sure if it's currently possible as the whole repository (mapswipe-logo.svg included) is released under MIT license.

Would it be possible to release SVG images (or at least mapswipe-logo.svg) under Creative Commons license?

It should show:

• the purpose of the app
• links to download it (play store / apple store)
• summary of impact (numbers?)
• the tasks currently active

sub ticket of #17

• Maybe clean up gulp tasks and package.json, I'm pretty sure it's bloated and we really don't need everything.

• Add JS (active menu tab, for example) and then use header.shtml as component instead of having a static one on every page

• I think the .idea folder could be deleted now?

on my (elderly) Lenovo Tab 5500h (8 inch) I have problems with the top and bottom border of the tiles. There is always missing some pixels, so there is a offset between two tiles. Its ok from right to left, but not from top to bottom. When I "zoom" the tile, I can see the whole one.

The Footer should contain:

• Links to the App in Google Play Store and App Store
• Links to Social Networks
• Link to the GitHub
• Link to MissingMaps
• Cookie
• Copyright

Sub-ticket of: #17

In relation to offering APK downloads ( afcd392 ) it could be good to list the app on the f-droid repo.

As a user I quite like it just as a way of listing/finding open source apps, but also as an easy way to side-load apps on amazon devices, however...

I make this suggestion casually without really knowing what's involved, but I heard from @simonpoole (vespucci developer) that it's quite a hassle actually. In which case feel free to park this as a low priority idea.

• country
• purposeMessage/thankYouMessage
• exampleImage
• exampleMessage

exampleImage and exampleMessage are to give show the user what to map for. Those could be displayed either at the start of mapping a group and/or when clicking the information button (top right of the screen).

purposeMessage/thankYouMessage should describe the porpuse of a project very briefly (>140 chars) and will be shown to the user from time to time when finishing a group.
