[CodeFluent]

Style: Allow for easy and striking visualization through stylized maps.

Style #1 does not need the use of images. Instead direct to GeoJSON styling is used. For styling points, lines, and polygons, use this to import a style array and copy/paste into the style function. Use this to make a started style array and import to snazzy maps.

Ground overlays will be used to get the 3D look later in the project. It will be similar to the Oklahoma example in the link above. More on this in another issue.

• Research how to stylize with images and reference
• Create assets
• Deploy in code
• Forward-thinking towards a 3d stylized map. Very customizable.

Style #2: Looking at this and atlmaps UI examples shows some ways we can manage UX design. Need someone to take on that.

• Gather all elements in code and find a way to represent it.
• Thought about using this (Routing>Elevation in San Fran), while the user scrolls on the bottom axis of time, the marker progress along the triail or something like that.
• Share information through a button and push notifications.

For styling, we'll meet with Jay Varner, an associate that has worked in the past for the AtlMaps project. People on this issue will be working with some Javascript libraries and frameworks or through Google's thing.

I'll try taking part 1 of this on sunday since I'll also be working on graphics stuff for the website as well.
