orbis_v2's Introduction

orbis_v2

ORBIS v2

.1

This is a pure D3.js version of ORBIS ( http://orbis.stanford.edu ) that introduces several new features:

  • Dynamic base layer to contrast route type with speed and expense
  • Capacity to remove sites from the pathfinding algorithm (click on a site and click "Remove")
  • Dynamic labeling (click on a site and click "Label")
  • Capacity to run cartograms from any site using the active settings in the routing interface (click on a site and click "cartogram")
  • Cluster cartogram results of similar types (run a couple cartograms using the same priority and then click "Cluster")
  • Draw regions of cluster results (Borders button in the cartogram modal dialogue)
  • Mapbox base layer using d3.geo.tile
  • TopoJSON for efficiency and, hopefully, even more interesting cartograms

There are many missing features, inconsistencies and poor UI/HCI/UX/ETC that I'd like to develop with the input and support of the community.

orbis_v2's Issues

Interaction Context

There needs to be a modal dialogue (that can be minimized) that provides some explanation of each major interaction with suggestions on related interactions. For instance, when you run a route, it should note that you could change the month or priority to see a different route, or when you run a cartogram it explains the next steps in the process to get to clusters and borders.

Routes in Cartogram

Rather than just distorting sites, the cartogram should also distort routes, either using distorted geo for the routes (requiring georectification/custom projection) or at least with straight lines connecting them.

Advanced Transfer Costs

Transfer Cost is currently applied universally to all transfer types. User should be able to set specific costs for river, coastal, overseas, ferry.

Terrain in Cartogram

Custom projection could be used to rubber sheet the Mapbox terrain to the distorted geography of the cartogram, but this would require not only serious computation but also some kind of visual method to represent the distortion that occurs when a distant coastline is "closer" than an inland region. For instance, inland Spain is "farther" from Rome than the Atlantic Coast of Spain if measured by speed or expense.
