Rendering options for map visualization #19

Original issue 20 created by shakusa@google.com on 2011-05-04T15:44:19.000Z:

The request is for a set of rendering options that color-code the alerts on the map visualization according to some parameters in the alerts themselves. I could imagine a <select> that includes fields like "Severity", "Certainty", "Urgency" and when changed, dynamically changes the visualization via javascript using a pre-defined list of colors. It could get fancier by allowing more fields and combination of fields, but not required.

From Simon:

I have had a request from some of our users who have been using your Common Alerting Protocol Validator to look at CAP alerts. They asked specifically if the colour of circles indicating area could reflect the <certainty> value. For instance, we have "Likely" and "Possible" values for fire detection and they would like to distinguish a difference.

I realize there are 5 possible values of <certainty> so it is not that simple. Also, there may be a wish to colour circles/polygons according to <severity> or <urgency> but the users haven't asked me for this.
