Implement animation on the dashboard map #10

Closed Nightsphere closed 3 years ago

Nightsphere commented 3 years ago

The previous versions of SNODAS contained an animation that could be played going over 1 to 10 days at a time, showing the mean SWE for each basin. There might be some lag issues, as just clicking another date removes the previous map for a significant amount of time, leading me to believe an animation would be a jarring process for a user.

Maybe look more into what's going on in the buildMap function. Try to put as much into the initMap function, where things are only done once, instead of rebuilding large portions of the map every time something is changed. Perhaps only styling and properties should be changed.

The most recent merge has now been committed. There's more that can be done, but this took care of a majority of the issues/error handling/functionality.

The code that enables the animation to be played, paused, rewound, deal with errors, parse, etc. have been completed. Any other additions/changes/bugs can be opened up as their own issues in the future. Closing this issue.
