Extra Features

Google Maps API

The google map API has been implemented in Web and Android to allow the user to see the trees, and allow some features to interact with the map directly.

Android

  • Two Taps to Add a Tree

    When the map is tapped twice, with a small delay between each tap, there is the window to plant a tree that pops up. When filled and confirmed, the tree is added to the exact location specified by the taps.

  • Refresh

    This feature refreshes the map and updates it with all the trees that were planted/cutdown that were not there before

  • Mark Tree for Cut Down

    This feature allows a citizen/scientist to change the status of a tree to marked for cutdown for later surveying by a scientist.

    Note: User must back out of map screen and refresh the map to view any changes in the Info Window.

Web

  • Adding a Tree

    This feature allows a user to add a tree to a specified coordinate.

  • Removing a Tree

    This feature allows a scientist to remove a tree from the map, essentially cutting it down even though it is still stored in the database.
