EnviroCar Track Visualizer with MapLibre (Challenge App)

• This Android application demonstrates visualizing a recorded enviroCar track on a MapLibre map, mimicking functionalities potentially found in the enviroCar app.

Purpose:

• This app serves as a personal project to showcase the feasibility of using MapLibre as an alternative to Mapbox in an enviroCar-like scenario.
• It fulfills the requirements of a code challenge to demonstrate practical skills in:
• Consuming data from a simulated enviroCar API (actual API access not implemented).
• Utilizing the MapLibre library for Android development.
• Building a basic map visualization application.

Features:

• Track Fetching (Simulated): Simulates fetching a recorded enviroCar track in JSON format using a placeholder API call. (Note: This doesn't involve actual enviroCar API interaction.)
• Map Display: Presents a MapLibre map in OpenStreetMap (OSM) style.
• Track Visualization: Visualizes the retrieved track data as a Polyline on the map.
• Markers: Highlights the track's origin and destination points with markers.
• Popups (Basic): Clicking on a track point marker displays a generic message (placeholder functionality).

Technical Stack:

• Android Studio
• MapLibre Native library for Android

Getting Started:

• Go to Testing.md for testing this app.

• For the Solution and Approach Details go to Approach.md.

Important Note:

• This project focuses on core functionalities and serves as a demonstration. It doesn't implement the full features of a map visualization application.

Potential Enhancements:

• Integrate actual enviroCar API calls to fetch real track data.
• Develop a more comprehensive popup functionality that displays the timestamp of the clicked track point.
• Implement additional features like user location tracking, map controls, and customization options.
• By showcasing these functionalities, this project demonstrates the potential for migrating map functionalities from Mapbox to MapLibre in an enviroCar-like context.ionalities and serves as a demonstration. It doesn't implement the full features of a map visualization application.
