@ronaldtse My TC211 AWS has 403 error, could you help to review it?

Error: error using credentials to get account ID: error calling sts:GetCallerIdentity: InvalidClientTokenId: The security token included in the request is invalid. status code: 403, request id: cdf5f43f-5964-433b-9688-01b7cc2ad29a

ronaldtse commented 3 years ago

@kwkwan can you please help here? Thanks.

ronaldtse commented 3 years ago

@phuonghuynh you should already have full access. Can you double check your token?

ronaldtse commented 3 years ago

Just to double check are you using the correct AWS account number?

From @maccraymer

  1. Reorder sections. I think the following order would be more logical in terms of importance to users:
    • ISO Geodetic Registry (ISOGR)
    • Usage and license
    • Registration Authority
    • Contacting us
    • Sponsors
  2. Define ISOGR acronym – I suggest to put it immediately after the title “ISO Geodetic Registry (ISOGR)”.
  3. Usage and license
    • Need to change statement: “Users may also submit proposals…” to “Only approved authoritative agencies may submit proposals…”
    • Add an additional statement something like “Such agencies need submit their request to submit via the Feedback page.” The feedback mechanism is the only way to get notified of new agencies needing to register. The registration mechanism does not notify anyone of new registration requests (at least in the existing Registry). Hopefully, the new platform will notify the Register Manager via email of any new registration requests.
  4. Sponsors
    • Sponsor paragraph and logo images should be at the very bottom of page.
    • Do not hyphenate “free-of-charge”.
    • Replace “financial support given by the following sponsors, including” with “financial support provided by the following sponsors:” (replace “given” with “provided”, remove “including”, and add colon at end).
    • No need to display the name of sponsors in addition to their logos which already includes the names.
    • The sponsor logo images are too large, especially IGN. Make them smaller and of similar size and on the same line. The much larger IGN logo also gives the incorrect impression IGN has sponsored the most while it actually contributed the least by an order of magnitude. I suggest to put the sponsor images in order of magnitude of contribution: Ribose, Karverket, NRCan, IGN.
  5. Last line of the page is hidden by the bottom footer

@phuonghuynh @strogonoff can you let me know once this change is done? Thanks.

P.S. please keep in mind @maccraymer 's feedback of:

The sponsor logo images are too large, especially IGN. Make them smaller and of similar size and on the same line. The much larger IGN logo also gives the incorrect impression IGN has sponsored the most while it actually contributed the least by an order of magnitude. I suggest to put the sponsor images in order of magnitude of contribution: Ribose, Karverket, NRCan, IGN.

strogonoff commented 3 years ago

Reducing the size any further will make the text on two of the four logos illegible.

@strogonoff the Paneron site does not have the problem about logo size, but please help update the order of logos and text. Thanks.

Not sure if I can reply to this GitHub issue via email reply but here goes…

It is really just the IGN logo that needs to be scaled down and it has large fonts so it will still be legible.

The Kartverket & Ribose logos also have fairly large fonts and can be scaled down a bit as well, if needed.

The NRCan logo is actually two logos: the top NRCan logo with the small text and the bottom Gov’t of Canada logo. You can get rid of the bottom Canada logo. And I can provide a smaller (width-wise) NRCan logo that you won’t have to shrink (or at least not too much). All I will do is shift the English and French text closer to each other and to the flag. I can also try resizing the vertical dimension larger if shrinking the horizontal. That will help make the text more legible. I do this all the time with our logo because it is so wide with both official languages.

The other logos can be scaled down (if needed) to roughly the size of the NRCan logo. I’m not sure if they will all fit on one line. If not, hopefully, they will not require as much vertical space as now if they are on two lines.

I will try preparing a mock up on a generic web page for an example.

Thanks, -Mike

For the "geodetic.isotc211.org" ; some logos have been scale down to 50%

maccraymer commented 3 years ago

The logos size is better on the Paneron site. You should get rid of the “Canada” part of the NRCan logo which will then allow you to enlarge the NRCan part to make it more legible. I will also provide a new NRCan logo with the English and French text closer together and closer to the flag so it’s not so wide when enlarged.

I also think the logos in Paneron should be side-by-side so they don’t take up as much vertical space.

BTW, I’m not a fan of the single-level vertical stacking of text boxes for all information on the Paneron home page. I assume this is done just for development purposes and the final home page will have something more structured to show the hierarchy of information. Similar to the current registry.

Is it also possible to have a navigation panel on the left like the current registry? It would always show the hierarchy of the information and allow for quicker navigation between different parts of the hierarchy. I rather like the current GUI in that respect. As a user of the registry, I find it very easy and efficient to use.

Rather than having the user click a “Browse” hyperlink button to display the items for each item class, I think it would be more efficient (and require less space) to make the entire text box a hyperlink. It’s easier and faster to aim my cursor or finger at the entire box than the smaller browse button. Or maybe this is irrelevant if the home page is just temporary for development.

Finally, I assume there will eventually be a search function but have you given any thought yet as to how it might function? I rather like the real-time (immediate) functionality of the one in the current registry. The problem is it only searches the item number and name field. By default it should also search the alias field. And of course it should have an “advanced” option to select other fields to search. I’m sure you’ve already thought about all this but thought I’d offer my 2 cents anyway.

Aside: The Paneron home page does not render properly on my iPhone in portrait orientation. It’s okay in landscape. Or maybe this is all moot if the home page design is just temporary for development.

Thanks, -Mike

I've attached a revised NRCan logo without the Canada word mark and with a slightly compressed width. Please use this one.

nrcan_logo

I've also revised the home page contents per my suggestions above. In addition, I listed the standards the Registry follows in point form. I've attached an index_mc.html file containing these revisions along with the scaled down logos. You can also see it at https://www.naref.org/isogr/index_mc.html.

Not sure why the link to the naref.org page isn't specified properly. Trying again... https://www.naref.org/isogr/index_mc.html.

mcraymer commented 3 years ago

Trying one more time...it's not an https link, it's a plain http link... http://www.naref.org/isogr/index_mc.html

ronaldtse commented 3 years ago

@mcraymer right now the size of logos on the mockup show IGN as most prominent. While it is not super important we probably need some thinking here... A "grid" like structure probably works best.

P.S. I've added vector logos for all sponsors here: https://github.com/isogr/brand-assets .

I was able to find an NRCan SVG file which I've fixed up the layout according to your image, so the graphic is more crisp and scalable.

maccraymer commented 3 years ago

Yes, like Anton said, the IGN text becomes illegible when reducing much further. Unfortunately, they have a huge acronym with their name spelled out in tiny text. I don’t think there’s anything we can do about it unless we just use the IGN acronym without the full name, or vice versa. -Mike

maccraymer commented 3 years ago

The link to all the vector logos didn’t work for me. I get a 404 error.

I’m curious, where did you find the svg image for NRCan? On our website somewhere?

Can someone please update the current Registry home page as soon as possible using the text from the following web page: https://www.naref.org/isogr/index.html.

There are some things that need to be corrected right away. I've also made a few more revisions to the text, including:

The logo scaling in the example web page seems to work well. I've used a Table structure for them.
