Testing FMTM Splitter Visually

Sometimes a GeoJSON printed to the terminal just doesn't cut it...

If you wish to view the split data output in a more visual way:

Option 1: GeoJSON.io

1. Generate a geojson bbox via geojson.io
2. Copy the content into output/input.geojson in this repo.

3. Run the splitting algorithm:

   docker compose run --rm splitter fmtm-splitter \
       --boundary output/input.geojson \
       --outfile output/output.geojson \
       --number 50
   

   Note: a data extract will be generated for you.

4. Copy the data from output/output.geojson to geojson.io to visualise.

Note: to include a custom data extract, pass the --extract flag point to a geojson file.

Option 2: FMTM

1. Setup FMTM:

   git clone https://github.com/hotosm/fmtm.git
   cd fmtm
   cp .env.example .env
   
   # Open docker-compose.yml and uncomment
   - ../osm-rawdata/osm_rawdata:/home/appuser/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/osm_rawdata
   
   # Run FMTM
   docker compose up -d
   

2. Go to the FMTM dashboard

3. Create a new project.
4. Upload your project AOI.
5. Upload or generate a data extract.
6. On the task splitting page, select Task Splitting Algorithm.
7. Then click Click to generate tasks to see the algorithm output.
