Two things today that make the app feel way more like an actual product.
GPS map view
Photos taken with location data now show up on a map. Pins at the coordinates where each shot was taken. You can tap a pin and it’ll pull up the photo alongside its occlusion data. The purpose here is pretty obvious, if you’re doing a survey across a large area you need spatial context for your data, not just a flat gallery list.
Map clustering is in there too since you can end up with a lot of overlapping pins at certain zoom levels. Added a bubble badge showing the count when pins cluster together. Had to fiddle with the z-ordering a bunch. The count badge was getting covered by the cluster bubble itself, annoying to fix but is good now 🙄.
Logo
Canopticon has a logo, neat. Added the logo assets and improved the crop.
Having an actual identity for this thing makes the UI feel a lot less placeholder-y.
It’s an eye inside a stylized geometric hexagon, combining elemnents of the hand of fatima/hamsa with some kinda geometric and prismatic elements with blue and whitish colors.
The idea is mainly to represent machine-vision and blue sky scanning capabilities.
Still not gonna go nuts with branding or anything, just wanted something to provide an identity.
yep
These two’re the kind of things that make it feel like a real tool instead of a script with a webpage stapled on
