Import Key/Values to TM task tiles from GeoJSON file #5035

Open Vaomatua opened 2 years ago

Vaomatua commented 2 years ago

In creating tiles for several HOT projects I have GeoJSON files that contain key/value information I would like to have attached to the individual task polygons. image The specific project is vicinity tiles for school locations based on opendata information and contains the school name that would be applied to the resulting polygon that the users create based on imagery. Without this information the users are able to identify schools, however, the name is not known without adding an external source. With the key/value added to the Boundary for task layer the users could readily copy the value and paste it for the Tag Name value. I envision the workflow as an option button to add key/value from the source project polygons after choosing "Set tasks using uploaded polygons".

Yes this would be very useful!

Hi I am new. This caught my eye. While I am an experienced developer, I am new to this project. How involved is the work for this issue? Does this make sense for someone like myself to take on?

Hey @blueivywave thanks for the offer, this might be a good project to get you started with supporting HOT. My main concern would be that whatever work you do would incorporate into the the main HOT TM. Here is a sample geojson file. Thanks KEN_Nyamira_Schools_Buffer.zip
