The Map activity allows children to create geo-tagged media mashups. Children can place images, videos, and audio recordings onto maps of their communities. |
|||
= Tutorial = |
|||
== Getting Started == |
|||
When you launch the Map activity, sugar will attempt to reach a remote map server. |
|||
If you don't have a good internet connection, you might not be able to get past this screen. |
|||
<br /> |
|||

|||
<br /> |
|||
<br /> |
|||
When you've connected to the map server, you will be able to browse maps of the world. The current implementation uses Google Maps. Other map servers could also be implemented. |
|||
<br /> |
|||
<br /> |
|||
You can navigate the map using the compass arrows on the sides of the map. You can zoom in and out using the '''+''' and '''-''' buttons. Enter a location into the '''Address''' bar to jump to a new part of the world. |
|||
<br /> |
|||

|||
<br /> |
|||
<br /> |
|||
== Adding Media == |
|||
To add media from your journal onto the map, click on the '''Add Media''' button. |
|||
<br /> |
|||

|||
<br /> |
|||
<br /> |
|||
This will open a file chooser dialog. You can only select images and and video files to add to the map, so you might want to filter the list. |
|||

|||
<br /> |
|||
<br /> |
|||
Your mouse will become a crosshair, and where you click next will be selected as the location of your photo or video. |
|||

|||
<br /> |
|||
<br /> |
|||
Media will be represented on the map by the colors of the xo which recorded the media. |
|||
== Browsing Media == |
|||
If there are multiple media within one region of the map, you can click the [[Image:Activity_map_button_left.png]] and [[Image:Activity_map_button_right.png]] buttons in the map region to cycle through them. If you want to see the pop-up with a higher-quality image or watch the video, click [[Image:Activity_map_button_info.png]]. |
|||
<br /> |
|||
<br /> |
|||

|||
<br /> |
|||
<br /> |
|||
== Visualizing Density == |
|||
As you add more media to your map, you can click on the '''Density''' button to get an overview of where media is clustered. |
|||
[[Image:Activity_map_screenshot_density.png]] |
|||
<br /> |
|||
<br /> |
|||
== Searching for Tagged Journal Media == |
|||
If you tag your photos and videos in the journal as shown below: |
|||
<br /> |
|||
[[Image:Activity_map_screenshot_journaltagging.png]] |
|||
<br /> |
|||
<br /> |
|||
If you've tagged your photos and videos in the journal, then you can filter on those tags in the Map activity! |
|||
<br /> |
|||
[[Image:Activity_map_screenshot_tags.png]] |
|||
<br /> |
|||
<br /> |
|||
== Saving Maps == |
|||
You can save a map by clicking the '''star''' button. Saved maps are added to the tray at the bottom of the activity. If you click a map button, the map will be returned to the location, zoom level, and tags when the map was saved. |
|||
<br /> |
|||

|||
<br /> |
|||
<br /> |
|||
You can copy an image of this map state to the clipboard if you want to use it in other activities, like write or paint. |
|||
<br /> |
|||
<br /> |
|||
You can also describe this map as seen in the next screenshot: |
