Hi folks,

ReapBenefit is an organisation that focusses on decentralising solutions to
social issues, and empowering individuals at the local level.

They are currently working on mapping Corona related info on a map in
collaboration with the government: http://testnd.solveninja.org/.
<http://testnd.solveninja.org/>

They need help w fixing the following issues, most of which are map and map
interface related.

Caveat: The current base map is not OSM, and is Google maps. Their API
stack is also dependent on the Google maps API stack. Their map data is
currently stored on an SQL database.

Any thoughts/help on improving this app for public good, would be super
appreciated:

*UI-*

   1.

   Icons which are explanatory of the type of information it represents -
   we are unable to identify the best icons to suitably indicate the data. We
   will have new use cases coming, like verified donees etc.


*UX*

   1.

   Proper segregation of data on the tool
   2.

   Pop-up boxes which contain relevant and usable information
   3.

   Sense that there is some progress/development happening as a result of
   this tool


*Data Query and performance*

   1.

   Increase speed of query of data. The data is pulled on the basis of a
   bounding box around the lat long of the user’s screen. This bounding box is
   quite large as of now. The query time varies. It needs to be optimised, the
   query indexed and tuned to make it responsive.
   2.

   The tool is at times slow to respond - can we debug this to make it
   overall responsive?
   3.

   The map marker popups trigger a query to retrieve the details relevant
   to it. This takes a small amount of time (2-3 seconds). Can we speed this
   up?


*Tech Stack:*

Angular JS 7 for front end

PHP for the apis

MySQL for the DB

Kuldeep and team, please add any other info I may have missed.

Stay safe, folks!

Thanks,
Aruna
