Feature request: Open the map view for a record when clicking on the globe in the occurrence overlay #277

It would be nice if clicking on the globe icon in the occurrence overlay opened up a map view for that entity. This could be a simple call to the api to reload the same page but appending &view=MAP to the end of the url and replacing a search query with a unique ID. I have it working with the Occurence ID, but something similar would also likely be possible with any unique identifier (GBIF ID etc), as some occurrence records may not have a GUID like field.

Clicking on:

Would load the map view via a call that looks like this /specimen/search?occurrenceId=F9210E4D-35FF-FB40-9799-E35E27F3C6E0&view=MAP (/specimen may be /occurrence for other instances)

I'd rather extend the occurrence view with richer content. As it is now it is largely a stub without important features such as a map, video and audio, iiif links.

Especially since we will need occurrences pages on a url of their own.

Does that make sense please?

Yes that sounds great, especially having occurrence pages being accessible through a dedicated url. Having the map/audio/video integrated within the occurrence view itself sounds fantastic
