Observation portal #40

Open kellpossible opened 1 year ago

kellpossible commented 1 year ago

We have a WIP observation portal at https://avalanche.ge/observations, which is used to populate a google form. Now that we have a database setup, we can store the observations in the database and view them on a map.

This will probably be the first data that is important to keep. So we should definitely implement #4 before people start using this feature.

The WIP observation portal has been removed for now, but we're planning to implement this properly soon, SQLITE database is already in place so there are no blockers other than having the resources to do it.

In the Avalanche Georgia AGM today there was mention that having this feature in a proposed phone app would be a good idea. I recently implemented #93 for use in an app. A similar REST based JSON api could be added when the observation portal is implemented to enable it to be used from an app.
