Simple Corona Map

Demo Map Here

A key issue in stopping Corona spread is avoiding areas where known virus carriers visited during the incubation period. To this end, health organizations are releasing place / date itineraries.

The code here is a very simple web map implementation that displays the data. The data source is a Google Sheet, so that it can edited and maintained by multiple users within a well known system (technically the source could be any CSV file with the spreadsheet format).

The resulting map is OpenStreetMap based and desktop / mobile friendly.

Running the code

1. Use GitHub's fork option to create your own repository
2. Make sure to activate GitHub Pages in the new repository (Settings > GitHub Pages > Set Master branch as source)
3. In config.js, change SHEETS_URL to your Sheet (see below)

Entering data

1. Go to the sample sheet
2. File > Make a copy
3. File > Publish to the web
4. Select "Comma Separated Values (.csv)"
5. Click "Publish"
6. Copy the URL into config.js as the SHEETS_URL value
7. Fill in data. The required values are lat, lon and last_visit_date. patient_id and text are optional.
