Location data #1

Open house92 opened 6 years ago

house92 commented 6 years ago

The user input for locations is more often than not sub-standard. There are many items with locations like this:

"location": {
  "type": "Place",
  "geo": {
    "type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": 51.540628,
    "longitude": 0.046251
  },
  "identifier": "1a76d390-8a57-4ce9-83a4-22ebb13ed70b",
  "name": "At the cafe in the middle"
}

Could an actual address field (either a complete object or just the string) be added to the data?

Just bringing this to your attention, @dolkensp. Many thanks.

We don't have this data in the system.

Users are presented with a map to indicate their meeting point, and a free-text so they can label/name them for their purposes. No other address information is collected, as some of these locations may not have any useful address (Meeting points in middle of large parks, etc)
