Visualize Heat Maps #420

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
We need some way to visualize Jared's mpa overlap "heat maps". Right now you 
can just download a GeoTiff but it would be nice to either get a jpg image 
(from staticmap) and/or have a KML with image overlays added into the GE 
window. 

The trick is specifying which mpas should go into the overlap calc - i guess 
we'd need a UI form to do that. Then the image could be generated and cached. 
Then it could be delivered to the user in image or kml.

Working as of r4665b5cfdff

Basically its just a webservice which accepts a comma-separated list of array 
ids and returns a kmz instead of a geotiff. Within the kmz are tiles generated 
by gdal2tiles - so the file is self-contained.

No caching. No async. No UI integration. If we want that stuff, re-open this 
ticket or start a new one.

I've added a ticket (Issue 423) for myself to add support for some type of 
widget that can be created based on link type. So you could add something like 
this to the sidebar:
<a href="..." type="application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml">Overlap Map</a>
And get a toggle-able layer with maybe a download link. This could be used for 
the UI component of this if ever necessary.
