Add location information for users to kronus server
Daskott opened this issue · comments
Send link with probe, to get user location via browser & store location for each probe
Benefits:
- Simple
Problems:
- Information is not realtime
- Requires very frequent probes to make information more useful
- User experience is not great
Constraints:
- With the use of links, no need to receive
Y/N
response. Clicking on the link indicates you're okay & sends your location. However, we need to still be able to sendY/N
response, for cases where the user has no internet or doesn't want to send location info.
Questions:
- Should the link have
Y/N
option ? Or should clicking the link prove you're okay ?
Todo:
- Move entire probe verification to web app. User gets' notified with link & they click to verify aliveness
- Given the current constraints, make it as user friendly as possible.
- Ask user on web_page to include location co-ordinates
Later:
- We could have a mobile app that auto transmits location on each probe
