+ If I send a message within my community to all community members, I can not open this message in the panel (see screenshot: [http://test-gap.eawag.ch/GAP.Geopedia/images/5/5a/Screen_Shot_2015-04-24_at_10.51.21.png]). It has to open once I double click on it. Ideally it would send an automatic email to all community members. (JAKOB, TOBIAS)

Resolved Bugs

+ When I zoom into a geographical area and then select a global layer, it automatically zooms out into global view again. It should remain where I zoomed in beforehand. (JAKOB)

+ When I have multiple layers selected and want to change their properties (like opacity, or the Legend) it is not clear which Layer is associated with which Legend as in this screenshot [1]. There needs to be a clear association for example by having the Legend immediately after the respective layer name. (JAKOB)

 Fixed for chrome & firefox

+ I uploaded a .csv file with headers of 'lat' and 'long', which threw an error of "One or more errors occurred". 1. It would be better for the input routine to search for unique header strings containing 'lat' and 'lon', since not everyone may spell out 'latitude' and 'longitude'. 2. It would be nice if the actual error could be printed, e.g. "String 'lat' not found". (JOEL)

 Fixed
 Closed (JOEL)

+ Uploading a .csv file with a first line of "ID;latitude;longitude;meas" produced the error: "FEHLER: 42701: Spalte „id“ mehrmals angegeben" [2] (JOEL)

 Fixed
 Closed (JOEL)

+ When uploading a shapefile, I did correctly received the error "Zip file does not contain a .dbf file". However, I received the same message again upon (successfully) uploading the .zip file now containing the missing files. This is misleading, and so a message such as "File successfully uploaded" should be given. (JOEL)

 Fixed
 Closed (JOEL)

+ Two text edits to make: (1) in the box confirming that one wants to overwrite a layer, and (2) in the error message about a missing .dbf when uploading a shapefile-containing .zip file (JOEL) [3] [4]

 Fixed (not updated)

+ The Feature Info shows data that is difficult to read/understand and when values show up, units are not shown [5] (JAKOB)

 Data Issue. should be fixed by EAWAG Partners.

+ I have shared a layer publicly and then loaded it. Although it has data, the legend is broken. Screenshot: [6] (JAKOB)

 Fixed

+ When I "refresh" I get asked if I want to keep my old files. I get old files that I have just removed - sometimes I have 2 files with the same name. (ANNETTE)

   Fixed (not updated)


+ For Point Data the Statistics Button is only visible in the Option on Symbology - this makes little sense. The Statistic graph has the y axis on the wrong side and no x axis label. Also this way the graph is difficult to understand [7] (JAKOB)

The axis are in a correct position. The graph shows cumulative distribution of the selected variable.

Remaining Bugs

Register Page / Login

+ Microsoft Login does not work. (JAKOB)

+ Forgot password: Enter Email: Email Link: I get an error message, but no further information: error due to me? e.g. wrong registration, wrong e-mail adress + how to resolve? (CAROLINE)

Main Map

Base Map

+ The Google Earth Base Map has a limit in the north and south - if you zoom in you can not look at northern Scandinavia for example, all of Siberia, and northern Canada gone too [8] (JAKOB)

Print Function

+ If the Google Maps Base Map selected the Tiles of the base map seem to be printed wrongly (Example: [9]). The tiles are replicated and the base map does not correspond with the data layer. (JAKOB)

To be fixed after making decision about openstreetmaps

+ Legend for Country 'large'/'medium'/'small' makes no sense. See Screenshot: [10] (JAKOB)

+ overlay of GAP logo and other stuf bottom right (ANNETTE)

Upload Function

+ I tried to upload a zip file with shp files. It throws the following error message ([11]) even though no subdirectories are included (Zip file includes: dbf, prj, sbn,sbx,shp,shx)

Map Layers

+ Editing point symbology based on filters does not work (tried with Mekong and West Bengal data). They do not change after closing the symbology tab, the lines with edited symbology disappear. (JAKOB, ANNETTE, JOEL)

My Layers

General

+ To share with a user I always have to know the first three letters of his/her email adress to find the correct one. This should be better searchable (Name, parts of email adress, etc). (JAKOB)

Need to be discussed in the meeting. There were some reservation about this search function.

+ Edits in the symbology are not implemented and when I reload the site all symbology edits are lost. (JAKOB)

Point Data

Raster Data

+ Upload of simple raster data failed [12]. Data is here: http://www.naturalearthdata.com/downloads/50m-raster-data/ (JAKOB)

 I Checked your raster, it is a multi-band raster. We only support single-band rasters. User gets a proper message now

++ Uploading Rasters of tif formats still does not work and the error messages handed down are impossible to interpret [13]. When it throws the error for multiband raster, there is still illegible text attached to it [14]. Also in the help it states at the moment that when a multiband is supplied only the first band is used. (JAKOB)

Polygon Data

+ Simple shapefile could not be uploaded [15]. Data is here: http://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/portal/de/index/dienstleistungen/geostat/datenbeschreibung/corine_land_cover.html (JAKOB)

 I checked the zip file. The file names (in the zip folder) are different from zip-file name. This is not a bug. 

++ I tried to upload the folder again (all correct file names after I cleaned the original folder) and it says there are subdirectories in the file which there are not. [16]. (JAKOB)

Community Page

+ In the community page, the windows which show all team members can not be enlarged. It is therefore not possible to see all data/adresses completely (see screenshot: [17]). (JAKOB)

  Fixed: we have a new window for community details.

+ When I click on 'Permission' to give Admin Permission to different Community Group Users, the titl of the pop up window is 'Add Member to Community' and I have to Search for the User again. It should rather be a list of all users who are part of the group, from which I can then select. (see screenshot: [18]). (JAKOB)

 Fixed

+ With more than 10 communities in a list, there are still 11 showing when I select 'show 10'. This needs to be checked for other lists on the site as well, I suspect it won't work [19] (JAKOB)

  Fixed

+ Cannot add a new member to the hydrosolutions Group of which I am a member? Says I don't have enough permissions to add new member? Who can then add new members to a group of which I am member of - the group admin only? If yes, who is the group admin and how can I contact him? (TOBIAS)

  Only members with admin permission can add new member to a community. In the new windows you see who has admin permission.

+ Clicking the Permission tag brings up the Add Member to Community window? (TOBIAS)

  Fixed

+ What is the 'Remove' Button Supposed to do? To remove me from the community? Is there a community admin? If yes and if I am the admin and I remove myself from the community, what happens then to the community? Does it seize to exist? Or is the 'Remove' Button to remove the community? (TOBIAS)

  To remove yourself from a community only if you are not the creator of that community. As creator of a community you could also remove other members.

+ Don't know how I can now use the Table we have in our hydrosolutions community for further analysis and modelling? (TOBIAS, see also comment by JAKOB below in the Pre-Processing Section)

Manual need to be improved. it is not a bug.

+ After creating a new community group, my username is not listed under 'Permission' until about 1 minute later. If such a refresh delay is common, perhaps there should be a message stating so during the community creation process, or this process should take the necessary amount of time such that the group can be used immediately after being created. (JOEL)

Couldn't reproduce the bug. It generally takes less than a second to create a community.  
The problem arises (community owner or a newly added member not being listed) if one does not refresh the page, which most users will not think to do. Is it possible to automatically refresh this table? (JOEL)

+ User is not listed as an admin after highlighting user, clicking on "Permission" and refreshing page. In addition, the function of this button might be clearer if renamed from "Permission" to "Change admin status" or just "Admin". (JOEL)

Statistical Analysis

+ Generally, my Statistical Analysis Panel is not correctly displayed on Mac OS X (Safari, 8.0.6). All tables extend beyond the right edge of the popup window and there is no possiblity to shift. (TOBIAS)

 Not tested for Safari

+ Generally, great potential!! Yet, at this time, very rough user experience for me. (TOBIAS)

  Compliment and/or Bug?

Descriptive Statistics

+ Why is the Tab 'Descriptive Statistics' open first when it should be last? 'Preprocessing' should be first. (JAKOB)

  I don't agree.

+ In statistics only a cumulative plot is available. That is not necessary helpful. Rather a boxplot with the distribution of values showing the range and confidence intervals. Also the Table could be improved, as right now all values are just listed underneath each other. Also it says 'owned by undefined' even though it should automatically be associated to me as the user who uploaded it. Also the window of the graph does not show correctly. [20] (JAKOB)

   Not a bug, but a wish

Pre-Processing

+ once 'Add Layer' is clicked one ends up here ([21]), from where it is not possible to return to the main table (Data Upload Window). without filling everything. It is not clear what the 'Data Upload Window' mentioned in the description is. (JAKOB)

 Press "cancel" button.

+ Even though I have a Table uploaded ('BanglaTest' in this case, [22]) in the Edit Function I can not access it, the field is empty. Also this window is not centered in the iFrame. (JAKOB)

 Read the help again.

+ When I want to remove a Layer, it does not do it and just opens an empty yellow window below [23]. (JAKOB)

Fixed, tested only by chrome and firefox

+ Trying to add second layer for modelling throws an error [24]. (JAKOB)

 Fixed

+ Model does not work, for different reasons perhaps [25] (JAKOB)

 Wrong description. It is the same bug as previous one.

+ The last file in the pre-processing table can not be removed - no response. [26] (JAKOB)

 Fixed

+ As of 05/11 the upload of a new model file fails to work completely. (JAKOB)

 Ambiguous description. What do you mean by "model file"?

+ Trying to edit or add a line in a Point Table in the PreProcessing Step fails. It throws the error message: 'please select at least one raster layer'. Also the 'Select Column' Dropdown is empty and the 'Cut' tool does not work. (JAKOB)

 Ambiguous description. You don't add line to a modelling table, but a column from other layers. Read the help please again. 

+ Text at top of Preprocessing window should be cleaned up: "This step prepares a data table to be used in the modelling section. You may skip this step if your data table (point measurements) is ready for modelling." [27] (JOEL)

  Fixed
  No text is present (JOEL)

+ See screenshot for some text changes in the Preprocessing window after clicking on "Add" [28] (JOEL)

 Fixed
 Need space between "target" and "(dependent)", and the first line of the notes, ""Base layer" is a..." should be removed. (JOEL) [29]

+ Error on creating a data processing element using an uploaded data table with the first row of "INDEX;LATITUDE;LONGITUDE;meas" and selecting 'meas' as the target variable: "Error:FEHLER: 42701: Spalte "id" von Relation "pk_dummydata" existiert bereits: at". I also tried a file with the first row of "LATITUDE;LONGITUDE;meas" and received the same error. [30] (JOEL)

 Repeated few times: Already fixed
 Closed (JOEL)

Modeling

+ When Modeling it is not explained what a 'proxy' is and the dropdown menu is empty [31]. (JAKOB)

 Should be explained in the help.

+ When I run a model, there is a small empty yellow window at the bottom but no information whether the model run was usccesful or not and where I can find model results. Only when I reload this page do the model results suddenly appear. There has to be a status message on the model run and where the results can be found. [32]. (JAKOB)

Fixed

+ Opening the first Model Results, results are not visualized properly and it is not possible to enlarge the window. Also the axes of the scatter plot are not displayed fully but are covered partially. [33]. (JAKOB)

 Couldn't reproduce the bug. Which browser? 

+ I want to apply my model, but no base layer is applicable. [34]. (JAKOB)

  Ambiguous  

+ None of the Graphs (AUC, Scatter) for the 'View Stats' is working (just shows 1:1 line). (JAKOB)

 Couldn't reproduce the bug. 

+ Various text edits on the Modelling tab. [35] (JOEL)

 Fixed
 Closed (JOEL)

Wikipedia Page

+ The WikiPage has images that go beyond the right boundary making the site difficult to read without constant lef-right scrolling. Image Widths need to be limited maximum to page width. (JAKOB)

   Is this a bug? Please refere to mediawiki help when uploading a picture. 

+ Uploading a Figure does not work anymore. (JAKOB)

Up and runing again

Visualization Errors

Global Maps

+ When 'Base Map' and 'Country Boders' is selected ([36]), the map looks horrible. Country borders should not additionally have country names, these are duplicates. The emphasixed borders are fine. (JAKOB, TOBIAS)

Well they are two base maps. Normally one selects only one base map. We can automatically toggle between them, so only one could be checked. I do not agree with your second command.

Must haves

Main Page

+ There has to be an introduction on the first page on how to use the site, that is that the TOOLS symbol is essential and all sections are there. Otherwise one stands a bit lost in front of the map. We can not expect from users 'to find out themselves'. (JAKOB)

There will be a front page containing some consice information about GAP. We (Annette and me) have already had discussed it few times and we have a first draft now. 

+ All those different windows opening need to have fixed spots - otherwise after a while the page looks really confusing to the user when these windows can be shifted around freely [37] (JAKOB)

 Dont agree. 

Register Page / Login

+ Texts for Disclaimer (Legal Issues) and email to registered user (standard text) need to be written. (JAKOB)

  Should be provided by EAWAG partners.

+ If Password is forgotten and new Password is requested ('Forgot Password?') no email is received. (JAKOB)

  Couldn't reproduce the bug. Provide more information please.

+ For Password: should be indicated which type of characters and how many should be included (CAROLINE)

Account

+ There has to be a possibility to delete one's account (on this page: http://test-gap.eawag.ch/GAP.Protected/Manage) (JAKOB)

  This feature has already been added to the application.

+ This Site: http://test-gap.eawag.ch/GAP.Protected/Manage has to be extended to provide: (o) choose whether your contact details can be visible to others. (o) Add your name, contact details, Affiliation. (JAKOB)

  First comment is alrady implemented 

Community

+ There has to be a possibility to remove oneself from a community. (JAKOB)

 This feature has already been added to the application.

+ It would be nice to have a confirmation window (e.g. "Do you really want to remove...") when removing a community. (JOEL)

 This feature has already been added to the application.
 Closed (JOEL)

+ If I send a message within my community to all community members, I can not open this message in the panel (see screenshot: [38]). It has to open once I double click on it. Ideally it would send an automatic email to all community members. (JAKOB, TOBIAS)

My Layers

+ When I remove a layer there should be a popup window saying 'Are you sure you want to remove Layer xy? Yes/No.' (JAKOB)

 This feature has already been added to the application.

+ When sharing a layer with a community, all of the communities to which one already belongs should be listed in the dropdown menu (JOEL)

 This feature has already been added to the application.

Public Layers

+ There has to be a check on layers being uploaded publicly - they need to be approved by an administrator first, otherwise the database visible to everyone can quickly become spammed. (JAKOB)

 Ambiguous, To be discussed in the next meeting 

+ All publicly supplied layers and privately uploaded layers have the (i) for data information one line pushed down [39] (JAKOB)

 Style problem. fixed it for chrome and firefox

+ 'Map Layers' window: There should be a radio button to select either the full base map or only country borders, if anything. For example, these options could be grayed out until a check box for 'Base map' is checked. [40] (JOEL)

 Fixed: user can only choose one of the base layers.

Statistical Analysis

Modeling

+ Results from the model (like scatter plots) should be donloadable via a simple button. (JAKOB)

 Added download function to modelling table.

Nice to have

Wiki

+ I think that for the correct format of Input files we need a screenshot or even a template file that can be filled by users, otherwise they will upload formats that cause trouble. I think the explanation currently available on the Wiki is clear but could be improved (can also be done by someone else than Manouchehr), see following Link [41] (JAKOB)

General Comments

+ Many actions (like sharing or unsharing layers publicly) only come into effect after the page is reloaded. They should rather take effect immediately, otherwise this is confusing to the user. (JAKOB)

 Share/Unshare layers are updated after any action currently.

+ The international rivers database (from hydrosolutions) might be useful to also upload on the site (see here: http://ir-s01.ethz.ch) (TOBIAS)

Tasks to be taken over by team members (non - programming)

Apart from bugs/changes that need to be conducted in the back-end by programming, there are parts of the site ("Content") that needs to be written and/or checked by team members, ideally by English native speakers.

+ writing disclaimer (Data Ownership, legal issues, etc.)

+ writing Wiki Page / How - to - use - the - site

+ mouse overs

+ all error messages and other notifications
