#4 Map in an app #68

Closed rasagy closed 2 years ago

rasagy commented 2 years ago

Hi everyone,

Now that you’ve played with custom map styles in the last exercise (#67), pick a context where you could use this map.

This could be…

Your final submission can be just a single screen (in a mockup of a laptop/mobile), or an interactive prototype using a tool of your choice (Xd/Figma/Framer…). Look out for plugins to directly bring in your map style from Mapbox, like Mapsicle or Figmap for Figma.

Hey Rasagy,

I have some topics in mind about the Map in-app

  1. A map of the UFO sightings across the world (Website & App)
  2. A map of treks conducted by a Thrillophilia (Website & App)

  3. Old Topic: Misti map of Kolkata (a map of all the 100 years old sweets shop in Kolkata) (Website)

Brainstorming on the topics:

  1. An app that helps one find accessible/ wheelchair friendly places in a neighbourhood
  2. A journaling app in which the user notes experiences at locations. (Expanding the feature set of Daylio)
  3. An app for movie buffs that shows locations where bollywood movie scenes have been shot

Brainstorming topics.

  1. An app that tells which art movement inspired the houses near you and also the year in which they were constructed.

  2. An app that tells you the location of nearby policemen/ traffic policemen and you can decide whether to ask for help or not to take that route.

  3. An app that collects data from stock image websites (shutterstock, unsplash etc) and tells you if there are photo-worthy locations around you.

  4. An app that gives you non-conventional options other than traffic to decide your route. For example, the path with the most scenic view and throws a notification to look out of the window if a good view comes around, the path with the least pollution levels, the path less traveled (thanks to Robert Frost for this idea) etc.

Few initial ideas about Map in App

SudevKiyada commented 2 years ago

Some ideas for map in app

  1. A crowdsourced application that shows all the graffiti spots around the city. People can click a pic of graffiti and upload it on the app for other people to see or even visit those spots. One more layer can be added where the app allows people to add digital stuff (immersive stuff) with graffiti as a marker.

  2. An app that hides malls and stores for foreign brands and instead focuses on local artisans and businesses to promote swadeshi products.
