A reference doc (docs/nps-resources.adoc) covering everything looked at while pulling icons/controls/theme colors from NPS's mapping ecosystem: what's actually in use (symbol-library, home-button, the Park Tiles-inspired offline palette), what was considered and deliberately skipped (svg-icons, markdown-handlebars, the unmerged overview/carto/wms branches) and why, the Park Tiles cartography research (Harpers Ferry Center lineage, the four style variants, why the actual tile service is off-limits via Mapbox Atlas licensing, the public style JSON and Mapbox Studio style IDs found), and the still-open upstream PR revising artwork for three icons we use. Worth having as a knowledge base rather than re-deriving any of this from scratch next time — NPS's tooling has repeatedly turned out to be a better source than building something from nothing.

|
|
|
|
A mapping application written in Ruby with Sinatra.
|
|
|
|
The project's shape is still open — this is the initial scaffold.
|
|
|
|
== Status
|
|
|
|
Early scaffold. The web application serves a vector map (MapLibre GL
|
|
JS), with an online style and an optional offline style backed by a local
|
|
PMTiles file, an animated RainViewer radar overlay, GPX
|
|
upload/display (points and tracks, organized in folders), and a live
|
|
position marker from a local GNSS receiver via gpsd.
|
|
|
|
== Requirements
|
|
|
|
* Ruby (see `.ruby-version`) and Bundler
|
|
|
|
