Select Location from Map

When adding a location:

• ​http://127.0.0.1:8000/eden/gis/location/create

Want to be able to open up a MapWindow where the cursor can be clicked on a location which will display a visual marker & populate the Lat/Lon fields of the create form.

Status

Done :)

ToDo

• The map window should be centered (& ideally zoomed) on the location which has been identified as the parent for this location, if selected.

Example code from Sahana Agasti, which needs a little bit of porting from PHP to Python, some adjustment to the JavaScript variable names & then merging into the mapping API in modules/s3gis.py:

var pointControl;

// Add control to add new Points to the map.
pointControl = new OpenLayers.Control.DrawFeature(featuresLayer, OpenLayers.Handler.Point);
pointControl.featureAdded = shn_gis_map_add_geometry;
map.addControl(pointControl);

function shn_gis_map_control_add_point(){
    shn_gis_map_control_deactivate_all();
    document.getElementById('gis_map_icon_addpoint').style.backgroundImage = "url(res/OpenLayers/theme/default/img/draw_point_on.png)";
    document.getElementById('gis_map_icon_descripion').innerHTML = '<?php echo  _t('Mode: Add Point') ?>';
    pointControl.activate();
}

function shn_gis_map_add_geometry(feature){
    var fcopy = feature.clone();
    // need for later.
    var fcopygeom = fcopy.geometry.clone();
    var lonlat = fcopy.geometry.getBounds().getCenterLonLat();
    var proj_current = map.getProjectionObject();
    lonlat.transform(proj_current, proj4326);
    var lon_new = lonlat.lon;
    var lat_new = lonlat.lat;
    var wkt_new = fcopy.geometry.transform(proj_current, proj4326).toString();
    var type_new = featureTypeStr(fcopy);
    
    // Update form fields
    var x_gps = document.getElementById("gps_x");
    var y_gps = document.getElementById("gps_y");
    if( x_gps != null && y_gps != null){
        x_gps.value = lon_new;
        y_gps.value = lat_new;
    }

    // store x,y coords in hidden variables named loc_x, loc_y
    // must be set via calling page
    var x_point = document.getElementsByName("loc_x");
    var y_point = document.getElementsByName("loc_y");
    if(x_point != null && y_point != null){
        x_point[0].value = lon_new;
        y_point[0].value = lat_new;
    }
    // store type
    var loc_type = document.getElementsByName("loc_type");
    if(loc_type != null){
        loc_type[0].value = type_new;

    // Remove last plot from layer
    featuresLayer.destroyFeatures(featuresLayer.features);
    
    // Add marker for visual confirmation 
    add_Feature(featuresLayer, 'newFeature', fcopygeom, '<?php echo  $icon ?>');
