Create SRS document with all the knowledge we have. This will help us to know what we need to discuss with SDRC. Use this form for discussion if needed.

The list of sensors available for registration needs to be updated based on the list in the following Goggle Doc.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1x87AHmmCWmsgMVpbeEhw9iZm5iHPiUoJPuaUpzHsxW0/edit#gid=630637297

Users who do not have an active Internet connection for their logger may want to post data files from the SD card on their logger to the website. Eventually need some capability to upload a file and parse the data into the database. Hopefully get to this if we can.

Create a text-only, auto-refreshing status page for viewing most current readings from My Sites. This would make it much easier to check the current status of a station while out in the field and having poor data connection on a cell phone.

Need to set up a sandbox server so we can stage deployments. This should be in Linux so we can test our new Linux-based deployment strategy.

The current POST to send data to the website request is heavy because it contains a lot of information - e.g., tokens, tags, etc. Need to consider a lighter weight post request (or potentially even a get request) that simply has a list of ordered numbers, one for each measured variable.

Issues:

1. How to make sure the values are always in the right order in the request?
2. How to match the values to the right result on the back end
3. How to get some security so we don't get spammed (check to make sure requests are authentic).

Because people forget it. Like me. Today.

I am frequently creating sites for other users. It would be nice for me (and others) to more easily be able to administrate other sites rather than creating multiple log-ins and regularly logging in and out as the other users.

When I make my screen narrow, the "register new site" button alignment is off.

Need to post examples of web service POST requests for sending data to the data.envirodiy.org website with different encodings in the documentation for the website:

URL encoding
JSON encoding
...

Need to add a button to each time series on the site details page that enabled download of the time series as a CSV file. The file should be simple - use the same file template used by ODMTools Python for time series export. @sreeder can get you the format.

For sensors commonly recording multiple variables, make it faster for the user to register that sensor in its most common configuration. So, for a Decagon CTD, have a shorter way to simultaneously register the same sensor with all three variables it can record.

Need to add a check box at the bottom of the sign up page with the following text:

• I agree that all of the data I post to this site will be made public according to the Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike License (CC-By-SA).

You should also add the appropriate creative commons license badge/icon below the text:

https://licensebuttons.net/l/by-sa/4.0/88x31.png

Details of the license at: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/

This URL should be linked in some way to the text and/or icon.

If a user does not check this box, do not create an account for them, pop up a message that says:

"To post data to this site, you must agree to the open data license."

Like editing email and organization after the user account has been created.

As new live data streams in, it isn't visible until the page is manually refreshed. If possible, it would be great to have all pages with information about real-time data automatically refresh as they receive more values.

Just wondering if this is going to be designed to connect to different ODM2 database instances dynamically (ones that users already have.) If so, what's the plan to make that work? That'd be interesting.

Was there a reason this was not included? @aufdenkampe ? I don't remember if we deemed it excessive for citizen scientists. I think it would actually be more educational for them to realize that things like the differences between unique sensors can make a difference in the data quality. Of course, it could also lead to problems if people decide to change out their sensors without reprogramming their board with the new UUID's.

Instead of opening to a map of the entire US, immediately zoom to about level 15 based on the location information given by the browser, if available.

When hooked up to the WiFiBee, the Mayfly can only connect to a single IP address. It would be great if somewhere on your IP you could set up a very short page only displaying the current US NTP unix timestamp to help sync the clocks regularly. Something analogous to http://time.sodaq.net/.

The RTC in the Mayfly is supposed to be very good, but it never hurts.

I keep clicking on the name anyway. Removing the extra block on the bottom should also make it more friendly on small screens. (Sorry for the really ugly art skills..)

To add sensors or remove sensors

Under the sampling feature, the site code is concatenated to the name. Since the box title is already the site code, this is redundant.

These should be completely separate dates, but right now the registration date/time is being labeled as the deployment date/time on the site details page.

Right now the tabular display of data pops up in a modal window that is not scrollable. This is a problem for high frequency data that make the table disappear off the top of the page. We need to constrain the size of the modal window that pops up and make the tabular display of the data scrollable if it doesn't fit. Example below:

in forms.py using the database diagram

Do we want to record the time a string was received by the server as a very rough verification of the logger clock?

This is admittedly on Stroud's very slow internet, and far more variables than any normal site would have, but http://data.envirodiy.org/sites/28/ seems to take quite a while to load up for me.

Users need to know what to enter into each of the fields on the input forms and so some hover text would be helpful so users know what to enter into each one. @horsburgh will write text and @jcaraballo17 will implement.

All the data from within an hour is displayed as 5-minutes after the hour, and after the wrong hour at that. Hopefully this is only a display issue. The most recent time in the screen capture should be 11:50 EST.

@aufdenkampe can verify, but I really don't think we're going to need to allow users to pick things like "volcanic vents." Maybe we can come up with a shorter list and add a link to the descriptions on the ODM2 vocab pages.

Provide some sort of label and standardized scaling for the vertical axis on the spark line plots including axis ticks.

When viewing only your own users sites, it would be much nicer if the map at the top automatically zoomed to the extent of only those sites rather than the whole US.

Once a user has registered a site and added sensors to it, add a button to the site details/registration page that exports a code block with the following:

• SamplingFeatureUUID
• Time zone/UTCOffset Information
• SecurityToken
• ResultUUIDs for any attached sensors

This would enable us to use standardized code for the rest of the Arduino code, but the users can paste this code into the standard code. Still need to define exact content and format of the code that is exported.

Include the timezone information in the data table, preferably displaying everything in the selected timezone for the site.

Allow users to edit site information and add/edit/remove sensors.

For easily checking the status of each station, we need to know quickly the last time a data point was received. Currently the only way to find the time is to go to each site, then click on the tabular data view, then scroll to the bottom. I would like to see the time of the most recent point above the plots for each station. I would also prefer to see the time of the most recent point at each station on the "My Sites" pane in place of the "Registration Date".

I think the TSA already has different icons for the different site types, but I love the little green/yellow/red dots vizer (http://viz.criticalzone.org/Christina) puts below the site icon to indicate data age.

Need the capability to delete a site once it has been registered. This would have the action of deleting all traces of this site and any associated data from the underlying database. There should be a warning message the pops up telling the user that deleting a site is permanent and that all associated data will also be deleted. They must confirm to delete the site.

The spacing on the spark-line plots does not match up with the actual timing of samples. It's particularly evident in http://data.envirodiy.org/sites/28/ where I've turned the logger on and off several times leaving multiple gaps, but there are no gaps visible on the plots.

When the page loads, the default zoom level should show the whole continental US.

Like this:

I'm getting a security warning in Firefox when logging on to the portal:

One of our user groups is already planning to deploy sensors with a ultrasonic water depth sensor in the stream and then a soil moisture sensor on the bank next to it. Can (or should) we implement these as separate sampling features.

Going along with #20, add some tick marks to the horizontal axis with standardized (6 or 12 hour) spacing.

I just think it looks prettier. When zoomed in to a single site, the map view has very little detail on it so the satellite view seems nicer.

The Campbell OBS3's output turbidity in two ranges, which seems to be quite confusing to users. When plotting long-term turbidity, it would be helpful to users to create a "merged" plot of the turbidity. (That is, the low range value when the sensor is inside the limits of the low range, and the high range otherwise.)

We want to encourage users of the site to sign up, but we do not want to discourage potential users from browsing existing data. So, make the following changes to navigation behavoir of the site:

• Remove the "My Sites" link for users that are not signed in to the site. It should appear when they have signed in.
• Change the "Browse Sites" link and page so that it is public and available to anyone regardless of whether they are signed in or not. Viewing individual site pages by clicking on links on the "Browse Sites" page should also be possible for unauthenticated users.

@jcaraballo17 - feel free to reassign to @mauriel133 if this is better addressed by him, but hopefully you can get to this before next week.

Need to make sure datetimes sent to the web service have time zone or UTCOffset information and are handled correctly in the database.

If I refresh the page to view data from a site (http://data.envirodiy.org/sites/28/) at the same time as I send a post request, one or both of the refresh and the post seems to fail.

Maintain the map zoom level while on a single browsing session, especially when hitting the back button after viewing a site.
