UI - allow users to enter lat/lon for devices #139

Open davroth opened 9 years ago

davroth commented 9 years ago

Since we provide a map view of devices, it should be straightforward for a user to enter GPS coordinates for each device.

If a device transmits geographic coordinates, then those should be used. If not, we would allow them to transfer data from a GPS device to NetTelligence as entry of lat/lon w/ precision is potentially mistake prone. Minimally, we should allow them to type in geo coordinates to an arbitrary level of precision (e.g., 48.759433°)

For the next iteration, we're going to need to accept street address as input too (Tech sets trap at customer location), so should consider that when implementing this feature.

Think about picking up location details from other app's/sources like mobile phone GPS location and/or scanning barcode w/ address

CUSTOMER - Sempra believes map is not useful for them unless they can enter lat/lon of devices
