Way to view multiple suburbs on one map

Open logicalbots opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Hello Luke Would you happen to know a way to create a site similar to the https://nbn.lukeprior.com site but can display multiple suburbs on the same map locally? I was wondering locally because it was worried it would be too expensive to host a multi suburb map on github pages.

Hi, the architecture of the entire project is designed around a suburb level display.

You could modify the HTML to load in multiple suburbs relatively easily but depending on the size of these you will quickly run into limitations with the map renderer and would have to write a custom GPU renderer.

The more performant route would be to use the data from this repo but store it in a DB instead of JSON files and then dynamically load in the data as the map is moved around.

This project however might be what you are looking for: https://nbn.rinseout.org/

Thanks for replying, I was able to find that map after I posted this question. The only downside is the data is much older. But thank you for letting me know.
