RHoK Boston: Hack the Hub!
Continuum, an innovation and design consultancy in Boston, redesigned the frontend for this project. We want to implement that design.
See the concept PDF: https://s3.amazonaws.com/wmgardner.co/pdfs/BostonGreenSpaceDesign.pdf
We will need help from people with experience in Django, Postgres, jQuery, CSS or HTML.
[x] Research how the existing app serves data, and how it needs to be changed to accommodate the new features.
- Backend needs to allow for featured parks, so a new "featured_park" flag for the records
- We need to be able to handle a nearby_parks methods or something tapping into the PostGIS features.
- We should explore OAuth via Facebook: https://www.djangopackages.com/grids/g/oauth/
- Develop static HTML and CSS version of the new design (PSD to HTML)

- Documented data import, uploader
- Frontend code (Leaflet, UTFGrid)
- Backend code (currently Python/Django, implement JSON API)
- Social Media crawler
- Scraped photos could be curated and inserted into some API query table in the back that would call the Flickr API for those images. This could be done in an effort to allow owners of photos to remove their content from the site without having to contact us. This could be improved by removing images dynamically if they receive errors due to privacy switching...
