  • GeoJSON and custom maps as field type

    I'd like to add customisable maps to cases. I think GeoJSON based maps are suitable for this purpose.

    For example : I have a case that needs to be described with a picture on where the case actually is located.

    There are two options:
    1 - create custom field type, and include a GeoJSON editor.
    2 - use 3rd party editor and provide an option to edit/create GeoJSON by adding a "edit data in editor"

    First option creates a lot of (maintainable) dependencies, install issues etc.

    Second option is easier to implement ( I think ) and since the content is just plain txt we would not need to do a lot of adaptations.

    I think the option for textfields to define/allow external editors might be an option.

    geojson.io has a URL api, which would allow for passing content from restricted records to the editor.

    A quick, simple tool for creating, viewing, and sharing spatial data.


    Anyone interested in discussing this further?
