Make maps more ​interactive​ with the magic of a geocoding search box

Pigott 101, 9am

Rhonda Glennon, Katie Kowalsky, Diana Shkolnikov

Interactive maps are everywhere these days, and geocoding powers the interactive map experience. Geocoding turns addresses and place names into geographic coordinates. With coordinates of places revealed, the map can pan and zoom to the right location, drop markers, and draw outlines of geographic areas. In this workshop, you'll be learning how to build an interactive map that contains a simple, yet powerful, search box powered by the Mapzen Search API, which is an open-source geocoding service built on open data sets, including OpenStreetMap.

In this hands-on session, you'll learn:

• An overview of geocoding and examples of it

Create a MapRoulette challenge from a GeoJSON file or gist with little effort!

Let me explain how this works with an example. OSM user bitnapper proposed a challenge for adding multilingual names to places in Ireland a while ago. If I understand her or his request correctly, these are OSM place nodes that have a name tag but perhaps not a name:ga tag for the Gaelic name. (I am making the assumption that name will always hold the English name. That may not be accurate.) These nodes can be isolated with an Overpass Turbo query like so:

<script async src="//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Overpass Turbo lets you save the result as a GeoJSON gist easily using the export function:
