Blog Week 6

So, as mentioned in my last post, this week was... busy. To say the least. Too many projects pulling our strings, deadlines and requirements for which we had to prioritize our goals. For this project, that meant simply putting it aside briefly. Temporary pause.

It truly would have been of no use to try and split our attention even further, our progress wouldn't have been much here, and would have instead just lessened even further the time we did have for our exams and other projects. I think it was the right move, and shall continue pushing now.

The view is now clear and we can continue working without that many things on our way... full steam ahead!

Plan Week 4

Imagen
This week we plan to start working on a few of the things we've been going about back and forth with the Alberta team. Specifically, and on track with what's planned to be delivered on the Web Development Lab class, a map with points shown from the Datos Abiertos Jalisco platform. This, through a very basic API. We also have planned to integrate Github with travis-CI for testing automation. Eleni (UofA) has also mentioned a few other responsibilities of our team that hadn't been considered before: ingesting/scraping data to populate the back-end database developing analytics  features so that the platform administrators can see how the platform is used, such as (for example): how many assets we have, within an area? when were these contributed? what channel and which individual is the biggest contributor? how many people did this tour? how long did it take? So when the time comes, we'll want to incorporate these tasks into our planning. ... ... .

Team Blog Week 3

Imagen
This week, following our meeting on Monday, our communication with the Alberta team has been more constant. They've let us in some of the details we missed from our video meeting and informed us of some specific requirements their clients have. We've also been discussing with them about which technologies we've used in the past and feel most comfortable with. This has led to some agreement on the most part, deciding that (mostly) we'll be taking on the web development side of the project and them on the mobile client. We were also presented with a general idea of what this app is planned to look like: With all this in mind, we've decided as a team to go with the following system features: visualization of points of Interest in map routes creation with multiple points of interest, in order routes can be approved or dismissed by other users information about MiBici stations for routes information about points of interested can be edited by users automat

Blog Week Two

Imagen
Sooo this week, as "team lead" for our Mexico team (working with one of the Alberta teams), I reached out to Warren Thomas (team lead in Alberta) and we both introduced ourselves and spoke a bit. He seems like a very nice guy. And as slow as things might seem right now, I think we're still on track for what comes next. That being, whatever that exactly is that we'll find out on our meeting with the clients in Alberta that actually require this product. From our end, and as has also been mentioned in our team post this week, we have continued researching on the technologies and strategies with which the project seems to be planned so far. Yes, this post is technically required to be one page long, but... this is all I got for you right now. Really. So, I'm not going to write more mumbo-jumbo only to stick to that requirement. I don't want to waste your time reading more than you should. Except... I just did. And continue to do so, if you're reading th
