We asked on our blog for some feedback (via the comment system) on potential projects that may be of interest.
Although this is a test area we hope the work and experiences done here will lead to a better service available for the community of ECan’s GIS data.
Unfortunately no one has commented and provided suggestions, so we have decided and started on our first Beta ‘mashup’ which will be around swimming water quality.
Please do add your comments/suggestions on the blog so we can discuss what you would envisage could be other beta mashups / applications.
Cheers
The Beta GIS team. :0)
Great work!
And suggest that it would be helpful for the user to know how up-to-date the water quality is? Providing some basic metadata would be nice – or at least linking to information elsewhere on your site, such as http://ecan.govt.nz/services/online-services/monitoring/swimming-water-quality/Pages/how-why-we-test.aspx.
Similarly, I would repeat this suggestion re providing at least some basic metadata for http://www.ecan.govt.nz/ecanmapping/ as well.
