Again, no need to reinvent the wheel with the Galactic projections -- I have code for this that we can port over. Your time should be spent on providing an interesting and useful UI (as opposed to wrestling with projections)
I used some of Elizabeth's code to generate galactic coordinates, and I made a parquet file with unprojected and projected galactic coordinates (/home/scratch/kwei/misc_parquets/all_data_sampled_projected_dt_wrapped_MI_gal.parquet
). On the dashboard, there's a widget to select between coordinate systems. It seems to work, except part of the galactic plot doesn't render until you zoom or pan :/
Cool! Not sure re: the "doesn't update until interacted with" issue. But that's fairly minor overall!
Provide some option in the UI to switch to Galactic Coordinates. This would basically re-render the plot in the new coordinate system, but (hopefully) keep other UI state the same
