A simple, static framework for visualising geo-temporal datasets

My Projects in Ecology and Biodiversity Science

I am a long-term ecologist working at the intersection of evidence-based approaches, long-term biodiversity responses to environmental change, and functional programming.

Tools and Libraries
	Bristlecone is an F# library for model-fitting model-selection (MFMS) of ecological models to observational data. The library was developed for tree ring analysis, but can be used for other time-series modelling problems.	docs
	Ecoset is a simple and flexible typescript app to serve geo-temporal datasets using tools such as GDAL.
	Thalloo (pronounced tol-oo) is a template for geographical mapping and data exploration of systematic maps and systematic reviews. As a Jekyll template, the starter template may be used to make a github pages static site for exploring evidence maps.	Starter template
RProvider (Maintainer)	RProvider is an interop layer for F# to R for scientific computing.	docs

Web Apps
	The Global Pollen Project is a web app for paleoecology. It aids the digitisation of pollen reference material and crowdsourced identification of unidentified pollen grains.	globalpollenproject.org
	The Local Ecological Footprint Tool (LEFT) is a web-based decision support tool which can help businesses minimise the environmental impacts of their activities when they make decisions about how land is used.	left.ox.ac.uk marineleft.ox.ac.uk

thalloo's Issues

Handle polygon data

When an array of Lats and Lons are entered into the spatial fields of the data sheet, the map should be able to display these as a selectable polygon. This would, however, make issues with clustering view: perhaps a central point could be calculated.

Selecting a point scrolls to the top, not the bottom

When selecting a point, the expected behaviour is that the view scrolls to the list of items.

Truncate long fields in the selected points view

Fields, such as abstracts, may be very long, and can take up the whole viewport. We should make these fields truncate if they are, say, longer than 200 characters.
