View Management in UrbanCo2Fab

[johnsamuelwrites]

UrbanCo2Fab must support the following views, i.e., the ability to select the desired city objects based on various criteria.

• Spatial view management: This lets the user specify a bounding box to select the city objects within the specified bounding box and create a view with them.
• Temporal view management: This lets the user specify a period (a given date) or an interval (between two dates) to select the city objects of the specified period/interval and create a view with them.
• Selected objects view management: This lets the user specify a set of city object identifiers and create a view with them.
• Thematic/Attributes view management: This lets the user specify a theme like all the buildings, all the vegetation, tags, or a specific type of building/vegetation etc. and create a view with them. Use case includes understanding the style of construction on the different projects by Tony Garnier, progress of a particular species of vegetation (e.g., oak planted in different parts of a city)
• Hybrid view management: This lets the user specify one or many of the above criteria (bounding box, time period, time interval, set of object identifiers or a particular theme/attribute) and create a view with them.

As mentioned in #2, view management must not allow deletion of any view.
