Hi Fawad, Hi all,
Hi everyone, Hope all are well.
Ecaterina, Stephane, For the search, do you think that we have to keep both the filter search and the search inside the map? I feel like its an important use case for the users to be able to search a location/place but that is not possible with the query search. One approach is to have a single form with select options if the the user wants to query the data or make a location search. WDYT? Here's a categorical single search form I made about a year ago: https://jsfiddle.net/9inpachi/e428fLgr/
Imho the ability to search for a location should be an option, because not all users will need it, I think. In case it is activated, I would suggest a user experience inspired by the one exposed by GoGoCarto, the one of Google Maps, the CCI Map and the widget you mention indeed, that is made of the following elements: 1) a search input 2) only if the location search option is activated: two radio buttons for defining the scope: either the map data or a location 3) a panel that shows up upon explicit activation by the user for displaying and applying facets (on this aspect, it differs from GoGoCarto where the category filter is always present when the search widget is visible) 4) a list of search results that show up under the search widget and that can be hidden Examples: - https://abc.gogocarto.fr/annuaire#/carte/recherche/abc?cat=all - http://carte.preference-commerce.fr/cci-fr - https://www.google.com/maps/search/museums/@48.8761955,2.3004558,13z/data=!3... What do you think about this approach in terms of UX?
I took a look at the application-releasenotes and what I understand is that there are sample demo pages instead of functional tests. I personally think our Interactive Maps Application aligns well with that approach and we can have the same type of tests/demos. WDYT?
I would start preparing for a release for now and implement the tests once we have coordinated on how we do it.
That looks like a great plan. Cheers Stéphane
Best, Fawad
