Bird Alert Map is a project website, hosted on github pages, that displays a map showing all the birds that have been seen the previous day, in my county, that I have not seen yet for the year or in my life (commonly referred to as a Need Alert).
Due to this being a side project I thought it might be a good idea to create this Readme in an Obsidian vault to document my notes and process.
- Data pulled from daily eBird emails
- Data saved in geoJSON format
- Script reads the most recent geoJSON files
- Website with widget that displays bird locations
- Subscribe to eBird Needs Alert
- Google Script to use extract_email_data/extract.js
- Github Action to pull most recent file.
All my notes for this project is stored in bird_alert_notes. Everything from version history, ideas, blockers, etc.
