Batch of comments on portal #3
Comments
Just a couple of addition to @emiliom comments.

@aufdenkampe, take a look at our comments, above, and let us know (through this issue) what you think on any of them. If there are some comments you agree with and you think they deserve attention soon, we can pass them up to Azavea/Arianna via email or issues on the MMW repo. Thanks. |
A couple of comments/clarifications:
I think we could accomodate this neatly in the new filters pane, if it's useful for users to filter by data source.
I just checked, and HydroShare release 1.12 was pushed about a month ago. This includes a fix we were waiting for re: bounding box search, so we'll switch to using the production URL instead of the playground one we've been using. We also just ascertained that the HS API is now returning bounding box geometry for every resource, so we are making a card to implement those results in the UI.
That's coming directly from the data catalog so we can't change the length, though we could make it scrollable. |
Thanks for the follow-ups @ajrobbins! Great to hear that the HydroShare API now supports bounding-box search and response.
Yeah, we're suggesting the latter -- make the text scrollable so the user is not potentially presented with a large text box by default. |
The comments from Don and me at the start of this issue were mostly incremental tweaks and polish, or follow along areas we've already discussed. Here's a suggestion for new development, though based on comments from Anthony it may actually be relatively easy to develop given how portal search results are stored. It would be very helpful to users to allow a download of the search results into, say, a JSON file. We can discuss what the content of that JSON file should be, but I think the information already harvested i the search should be enough. Anthony agrees that would be very desirable. If not too onerous (given other priorities), some refactoring of the JSON may be nice, such as downloading as GeoJSON to enable easy map browsing on desktop GIS software, loading in a Jupyter notebook as a GeoPandas GeoDataframe, etc. I realize that likely would lead to some bloat; it's just a thought. |
The items in the laundry list of suggestions and comments in this old issue have either been addressed, discarded/discussed, or moved to the new, smaller laundry list at #9 (focused on Monitor My Watershed priorities). So, I'm closing this issue. |
