nethouse / taxidemo Goto Github PK

I just clone the project to study it and saw that it took too much time to download it.

Indeed it took so long because NuGet packages were submitted to Git because there is no reference to it on .gitignore

packages/*

Instead of showing individual vehicles on the map when zoomed out.
we could pass the zoom level to the publisher actor and make it aggregate vehicle count in some sort of tiled view,
take all vehicles in the user viewport group them by long and lat divided by some factor
and display boxes/circles with vehicle count.

The Taxi.Status message can be removed and replaced with a PositionBearing event containing the same status..

The reason it should be removed is that its sent just when it occurs and when new clients arrive, they will not get the already sent status.

Since the introduction of viewport events, some vehicles are just static, non moving while still being shown as a green arrow.

Currently, the backend needs to be up and running and waiting in init mode before the frontend starts. which works for local dev, but will not work on scale where frontend can respawn.

this needs to be addressed. possibly using Akka.Cluster instead

As we are displaying busses, ferries and subway trains a better name might be Transit something.
transit live, transit realtime or something like that
