places-3's Introduction

Places

A module that provides a taxonomy for storing place names and associated geographic metadata.

The module will use a taxonomy entity and attach certain supplementary fields to the entity to provide geographic metadata. The module will also interface with the Geocoder module to provide the geo-lookup on place names.

  • Place name for a location will be stored in the default term name field. When a user types
  • Latitude and longitude values will be stored in a Geofield
  • Additional geo-metadata (for location hierarchy) will be stored in the following fields:
    • Continent
    • Country
    • Admin1
    • Admin2
    • Locality
    • Suburb
    • Postcode

Due to some discrepencies between geocoding services the module will normalise continent data to the following list:

  • Africa
  • Europe
  • Asia
  • North America
  • South America
  • Antarctica
  • Oceania

UI

  • When a users types a place name into the location field there is an autocomplete UI which suggests geocoded place names.
  • Users can browse scenario content by geographic hierarchy. For example a breadcrumb or hierarchical menu like Oceania > Australia > New South Wales > Sydney > Marrickville
  • Scenarios can be displayed on a map according to the geodata associated with their relevant place name.
