Team Blog Week 3

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
  • automatic blocking of users with inappropriate behavior

Week 1 Planning

Imagen
This week we plan to continue researching about similar projects to what “Yeg AR” aims for, to get a better understanding of what existing products are out there already. Using the document that explains what the project is about, we identified some technologies that are proposed to be used in the project. We will research the technologies as well as how to implement them with AR. It would be great if we find sometime for us to actually chat with the students from Alberta, to agree on the requirements, specifications, tools to be used and how we’ll distribute the work. From what we’ve read in the project description, details aren’t so clear. So we’ll write down concrete questions we would like to ask them. All our team posts will be published with the teampost tag, immediately available through https://martellsmartcities.blogspot.com/search/label/teampost We created a repository for the project but depending on how we organize with the alberta team we might create a...

Plan Week 6

Imagen
This week we plan to continue developing our back-end side of the project. Mostly though, we'll be centered on figuring out how to use the Steps API previously developed by the Alberta team so that we add there additional info and media for important landmarks. The thing is, right now the Steps project is structured around "sidewalks", routes. We're not yet sure how we'll add landmarks, perhaps as routes that start and end at the same coordinates? The documentation for Steps is not very clear for where we can add this information. Hopefully we'll figure out a way, or a workaround, soon. image obtained from https://searchengineland.com/founder-openstreetmap-good-better-google-maps-already-192089
