[Wish list item] adding a National Resource Management (NRM) region search capability #31

Open JessieLOliver opened 5 days ago

JessieLOliver commented 5 days ago

We received the below request to add National Resource Management (NRM) region searches, following particular considerations around regional boundaries for the state of South Australia (SA). This feature would be nice to have as an enhancement, but implementing it in a way that resonates would further user experience discussions with SSG and anticipated participated users,. Given this, at this stage, such an enhancement is a relatively now priority.

"... it would be great if the search function in SciStarter Australia could include in its advance search function the ability to search by ‘NRM region’""." These regions relate to Landscape Management regions in SA and other regions of Australia

"I understand the search is only as good as the project extent data entered, but it would be helpful for people to narrow down to projects that are focused in a local area. (And that’s the message for project managers when entering locally-focused projects)."

"the Australia-wide NRM management units layer is now up to date and can be found at Natural Resource Management (NRM) Regions 2023 | Find Environmental Data"

Perhaps in the mean time, the regions could be added to the projects as tags?
