Starting with the Map and MapStats Activities, and creating an offline map activity where users can view maps and add their own data.

Objectives

  • Useful set of maps of Haiti, working offline
  • Ability to map a latitude,longitude point
  • Add placemarks and information
  • Read in a KML (Google Earth) file of points
  • Paste from OpenStreetMap or Google Maps when connected to internet
  • Add lines, allowing roadmaps
  • Read in a KML file of points and lines
  • Use XOL bundles to add additional maps
  • Share points between XOs (telepathy)

Current Screenshots

This is a very clumsy beta version. Currently working with HTML / JavaScript and another activity's webviewer module.

The latitude/longitude position of Jacmel is marked with a blue square. Clicking on the square reveals text information. JacmelMapped.png

The more detailed USAID relief map of Port-Au-Prince appears on top of a Haiti roadmap. Instead of zooming in like this, it should be possible to click and "jump" to only the Port-Au-Prince view. PortAuMap.png
