Task 6 (Step 2: View Existing FERC Dam Map) WW

[elbfox]

Create hover link or box with "attribute list" of essential info for each dam in the map. Want people to be able to hover and see info Emma will provide in a box, like this.

GGplot2, maptools, rgdal packages in R. Emma to get existing fish habitat polygon from Sam.

Will need latitude, longitude coordinates for each dam

[sythel]

@elbfox reformatted the dam info file, blank cells for missing latitude/longitude

included 2 file formats

https://github.com/dams-mcda/Dams-MCDA/tree/format_map_data/dam_csv

you can commit to format_map_data directly or comment with latitude/longitudes here

[elbfox]

Map file will be .png, similar to the file on "View Existing Dams Map" in step two. Do you still need lat/long to place the hover tables? I can dig up that info, I'm just not sure where I have it saved off the top of my head, and if it's a png I'm not sure how lat/long will help.

This is the newest version of the "View Existing Dams Map", and I will upload it along with the rest of them once I do a commit. I just wanted to give you a visual. The dams are all labeled on this map, so is it possible to link the data tables with the names?

[elbfox]

First map is wrong, this is the right one (Penobscot_MO_14_443)

[sythel]

is there anything left to do (besides styling) for this issue?

[sythel]

quick attempt at styling done in branch map_label_style

[elbfox]

Styling is fine for now. If Sharon disagrees, will reopen as a new aesthetic revision issue after 9/12.
