Purpose

Mapping the user journey can be helpful for us to see what the overall goal of our sections are.

We can use Mermaid.js as indicated in UNopenGIS/7#185

Purpose

To make it easier to find events.

Purpose

There should be a page for volunteers to sign-up to help with the group!

Need

The UN has a web style guide with recommendations for navbars and other content. We should probably try to commit to staying within these guidelines as much as possible:

• https://www.un.org/styleguide/

Next steps

• Create custom navbar react component
• Alter colors and font sizing to match
• Decide whether to keep dark mode or not. If we use dark mode, we can follow the UN TV which is mostly a dark scheme: https://media.un.org/en/webtv

Let's add updated social preview image UNopenGIS/7#154 (comment) to https://unopengis.github.io/smartmaps/about/brand.

@albertkun, could you handle this?

Unfortunately the update_events.py (https://github.com/UNopenGIS/smartmaps/blob/main/.scripts/events_updater.py) is creating this type of markdown file for the index.md:

| Event | Date | Time| Location |
| --- | --- | --- |----|
| イベント | Date | Time | Location |
| --- | Date | Time | Location |
| Event | Date | Time | Location |
| [スマート地図ミートアップ](2023-12-05.md) | Date | Time | Location |
| [スマート地図ミートアップ](2023-12-12.md) | Date | Time | Location |

and it is not updating to remove past events.

I found that https://unopengis.github.io/smartmaps/events is not up to date.

We may need to use our Discord event service share information about upcoming events. What do you think?

Objective

The upcoming FOSS4G event in Kosovo is a good way to meet and get people to connect and join with the DW7 efforts. Let's create an event page that has the details of the meetup!

Can we add a link from the documentation site to our new HackMD Team?

I am thinking about having more presentations on the HackMD Team.

Objective

To make the audience of the documentation clearer, we should have a clear objective for the DW7.

Notes

On 5/8/2023 Documentation Working group meeting @hfu @albertkun discussed the idea of Smart Maps being about open tools and data:

flowchart LR
     id1(Open Tools) --> id3(Smart Maps)
     id2(Open Data) --> id3

Existing resources

• DW7 Wiki

Objective

For ease of readability the resources should include the following:

• Use-cases
• Data
• Technical Demos

Purpose

Help build the community and let people know who previous/upcoming speakers are.

To-do

Add a bio page for each of the speakers.

Need

The About item might be better suited as a drop down.

Next steps

• Follow https://docusaurus.io/docs/next/api/themes/configuration#navbar-dropdown and implement

Based off of the earlier issue #33 a color scheme was created.

Purpose

Make it easier to recognize our group and our initiatives.

Implementation

Create a page to document the following color choices:

Purpose

From UNopenGIS/7#185 meeting, we will be adding the following resources to see how there is possibility for cross-collaboration between the Personas defined in #17

• #25
• #26
• #27
• #28

We can also think about the #29 in developing these as well!

I just added the page for the Smart Bazaar Walking Tour, if anyone wants to take a look and provide feedback, that would be great!

Live Page	Markdown Source	Language	Preview
https://unopengis.github.io/smartmaps/get-involved/events/smart-maps-bazaar/	https://github.com/UNopenGIS/smartmaps/blob/main/docs/get-involved/events/smart-maps-bazaar.md	English
https://unopengis.github.io/smartmaps/ja/get-involved/events/smart-maps-bazaar/	https://github.com/UNopenGIS/smartmaps/blob/main/i18n/ja/docusaurus-plugin-content-docs/current/get-involved/events/smart-maps-bazaar.md	Japanese

There's been issues with Aligola, so I think having a local search would be a better alternative!

Resource

• https://github.com/praveenn77/docusaurus-lunr-search

Purpose

To provide information about our community and make it easier to build connections, a community member page could be helpful! We can provide connections via SNS (Linked.In, Twitter, etc.) and also email address. The members can also be connected to the personas we are developing in #17 !

Categories

• Smart Maps Team Core / Steering Committee
• Volunteers
• Members

Recommendation

Having a search function on a website is helpful to find content for users, i.e. you can search for all content related to MapLibre.

Using Docusaurus there are multiple options for implementing search, the easiest would be using Algolia:

• https://docusaurus.io/docs/search#using-algolia-docsearch

Next steps

• Waiting for API Key from Algolia

Need

The documentation site is currently empty, We need to determine what content should be added.

Next steps

• #10
• Add content
• Related to #3 see what Japanese content should be included

Purpose

To be used on social media and the documentation website.

@lindseymardona is volunteering for it!

Thanks to @asahina820 's translations, we should update the Python script so that the new files have the same better translation!

There are two lines that need to be changed:

Draft

https://github.com/UNopenGIS/smr/blob/main/hardware.md

These are the websites for scraping events from for UN Smart Mappers

Objective

The resources should fit with the personas developed for the Smart Maps group!

Resources

Once this is complete:

• UNopenGIS/7#158

Need

A lot of content exists in Japanese regarding the UN Vector Tiles and other content. It would be good to put them into the documentation site.

Next steps

• Need to decide what content to include
• Decide what content can be linked to Qiita and other sources

To make it easier for new people the call to action should be:

Join UN Smart maps and Participate in an event!

or something similar!

Need

The documentation can use markdown files, which is simple, but users should know where to add them.

Next steps

• Have someone test adding content
• Document how to add content

Purpose

The Japanese Brand page is currently not translated (due to time)! Will do so eventually!

Objective

There is a lot of benefit for getting young people involved with DW7 and the Documentation can help in doing so. The Model United Nations could be one way to do so.

It would be great if we can include Document Design System colors in our Brand Guidelines.

Objective

We have permission to share the link here, so let's try to centralize it and perhaps put meeting notes in the Documentation too!

Nice to have

• #15

Purpose

It would be good to communicate our Smart Maps events calendar on the website with the Google Calendar source!

I am feeling that it is good time to add people pages to our UN Smart Maps Group web site.

People pages will provide opportunity for anyone to know about who is behind the UN Smart Maps Group, before joining our Discord channel. In addition, participants can introduce themselves.

I like to minimize burocratic procedures in adding a people page. Maybe each participant can create a pull request based on a minimum rule regarding the file path.

What do you think?

We may need to discuss what are the points to be covered in the people page; name, subprojects, interests, etc.
