user can click on map to see institutions and manuscripts there preserved.
We have three sets of informations about places
- institutions
- places
- coordinates
while Institutions tend to be rich records with coordinates and lists of manuscripts, coordinates are really just this, and a place name, but with full coverage for the whole of Ethiopia. places are toponyms unconnected to institutions and often duplicates of those.
producing a map within exist is not a native task. currently this is produce as text. optimally this should be produced, at least for the geoJson serialization in XML and then converted with the xml-to-json() a xql module produces a series of nodes containing the leaflet javascript and then this is saved in a file which needs to be modified before being fed to the system, especially if taking into consideration places, which is a quite dirty dataset.
This needs much more work. GeoJson features should be stored separately and popup information enriched. also the coloring of the pointer is only done for two instances and considers only some possible values.
proper layers need to be added to the map and not those of the ancient world which are relatively useless in this context.
GeoJson serialization should follow the new Pleiades standard to produce data which can be interchanged with them and pelagiosified in a near future
The geojson is produced in a transformation which assignes DUMMY COORDINATES to places who don't have coordinates. this is for the mere sake of testing...
