(1) Bugs/Features that need to be checked

+ The working server needs to be figured out at EAWAG and an administrator appointed.

+ Editing point symbology based on filters does not work if 'Apply' is clicked straight away. They do not change after closing the symbology tab, the lines with edited symbology disappear. (JAKOB)

+ 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)

+ There has to be a check on layers being uploaded publicly - an email needs to be sent to the Administrator. (JAKOB)

+ 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 [1] (JAKOB)

+ The Percent values in this plot for example are obviously wrong (>100). Could you check that? This is the Mekong Dataset [2] (JAKOB)

+ The values of this part of the dataset (sra) are not displayed. Could you check that? This is the Mekong Dataset. [3] (JAKOB)

+ In the documentation / GAP Help, please add the functionality to allow <math>-tags to be interpreted (for use in writing mathematical formulas). (JOEL)

+ When I open the table I shared I have added arsenics there previously but it does not show. I have to retry it a couple of times and then it somehow works. This issue I don’t quite understand yet, it seems to be limited to community layers. (JAKOB)

+ When the model is very fast, it shows a message it completed it in some milliseconds. I think one could just write ‘~1 second’. Also when you add 50 layers to a modeling table, it writes 50 times in a row 'The layer was succsefully uploaded' in the small window on the bottom left. It should only show that once per Upload. (JAKOB)

+ There needs to be a rigurous check of the site on all Browsers at one point (Chrome, Firefox, IExplorer, Safari). This should also be something we should ask testers, to specify their Browser. On the long run, we should also keep in mind compatibility on Tablets, this is actually something the guy from SDC asked me last time ... (JAKOB)

+ All Links on the main page need to be redirected to the main Help page (JAKOB).

+ In the printed Map, there is now the 'Map Data(c)2015 Google' printed all over the place (see here for example: [[4]]. This makes the maps rather unusable for a nice report. (JAKOB)

(2) Nice to have

+ The Sending a message to Community does not seem to work anymore [5]. Also when it still worked and messages showed up, the message was not sent to the group's emails. (Jakob)

+ When registering it should be possible to provide one's name (JAKOB).

+ When I delete my account there should be a window that asks 'Are you sure you want to delete your account? Yes/No' (JAKOB)

+ When I click on 'Register' it takes me to the Log In Page. There should be a page that informs about the 'confirmation email' however and only after I confirm is it possible to Log In (JAKOB)

+ If I want to remove multiple layers I have to remove each layer separately. This is quite tedious. It would be more convenient to be able to select multiple layers and remove them all at once. (JAKOB)

+ Statistical Analysis > Modelling > Preprocessing > Edit: ‘Select column’ dropdown should retain the last expansion state of folders used (so that you don’t have to again click through the directory tree to get where you last were). (JOEL)

(3) Feedback on HELP Page

+ the plots still need to be formatted properly, the way they look now they can not be used (see issues above as well) (JAKOB).

+ sample plots should have reasonable data plotted, not just some strangely named dummy data, would not look professional (JAKOB).

+ for the more complex steps how-to-videos are suggested, those will be made when the site does not change anymore, otherwise they have to be redone continuously (JAKOB)


+ Revise the section on Symbology as at the moment it is executed in a very basic fashion. (JAKOB)
