Suggestions regarding the search engine

Open openp2pdesign opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

From the discussion session at fablabs.io here:

Ideally the search engine and also a filtered map should be able to filter:

  • Labs who attended or attending conference X (fab 10, fab 11....)
  • Labs who participated in a program (fab academy 2014, htgaa 2015)
  • Labs who offer fab academy program so you can see them only in the map
  • Labs who offer residency experiences, since there are a few like this now
  • Labs with gurus
  • Labs by machines
  • Labs by open day
  • Labs by proximity
  • Labs with more likes (if we have a feature that rates fablabs)
  • Labs that seal services (what kind? materials?)

As for now we have Labs and Machines. I think we should add People to the search engine. And regarding this topic we could search:

  • Official directory of graduates (Fab Academy / Bio Academy / Future programs)
  • Search for Gurus
  • Search for instructors
  • List people looking for a job so companies/labs can offer them a position. (Linked/connected to jobs.fabeconomy.org ?)

You can already look for People with the search engine, see for example my user.

But the whole People section should be improved, I opened a separate issue for it #119 and a milestone at https://github.com/fablabbcn/fablabs/milestone/9
