Interactive Nodes Map for Dashboard

Interactive Nodes Map for Dashboard

We want to integrate an interactive nodes map for the Dashboard. The first step is to get a proof-of-concept running.

More info on this can be found here (google docs) and here (git.ourworld.tf issue).

We want to take inspiration from projects' map like Helium and Hivemapper.

Working on this with @scottyeager

Possibilities

There are a couple of projects/codes already offering maps.

• leaftlet: https://github.com/Leaflet/Leaflet
• helium explorer: https://github.com/helium/network-explorer

We could check if it's possible to use the helium explorer code for our own map.

Tile Set

We need to find a properly licensed tile set.

Features of the map

More on this will be developed by Kristof, but here's a starter.

• The map should
  • allow people to claim an area on the map and deploy
  • show where the nodes are available
• node expansion
  • Claim your area on our Global Map and deploy a computer (3Node) and optionally also offer wireless connectivity (meshed peer-to-peer) to people around you.
  • For each active node deployed in a “red zone” who achieves uptime of 99%, you will receive the option to buy a certain amount of TFT at 0.15 USD (our entry price of INCA). This means that, as our token goes up in value, you will have the option to buy TFT cheaper compared to the market price.
  • The first 100,000 nodes as deployed in an “orange or red zone” will receive reward boosters (1.5x)

Feedback

@despiegk Please feel free to add more info on the features needed.
@xmonader Feedback welcome. Especially in terms of defining the developer resources needed, as Sam wrote in the ourworld.tf issue.
