Serverless Web Maps

Using SQLite in the Browser and Service Workers to Power Web Maps from Object Storage

This project uses the sql.js-httpvfs library to serve vector and raster tiles from mbtiles hosted on object storage. The mbtiles could live alongside the website or be hosted on any publicly accessible url. A service worker intercepts the tile requests then returns tile data from the mbtiles fetched using simple SQL queries.

City of Lancaster Public Transit

A NodeJS GTFS Feed & Interactive Map Generator

This project consists of a NodeJS script that generates a GTFS feed and interactive map. The only requirements are a GeoJSON routes file, a GeoJSON and stops file, and a handful of static GTFS text files. The result is a feed that can be published to Google, Transit, or any transit feed service, as well as an interactive map with schedules for each route. The schedules can be fixed route with specific times or loop routes that run every hour.

Shagbark Product Locator Map

A Locator Map with Search and Nearest Store Finder

Using the original Mapbox JS store locator example as a starting point, the Shagbark map adds a couple of unique features including store text search and a nearest store locator. The project pulls data from a Google Sheet in NodeJS while building. This allows the client to easily update store locations and available products. Custom icons with the client logo are used to mark store locations. An open source version of this store locator is available on GitHub.
