Location Data Issues #4

Description

Right now we are only merging PlayaEvents and the 2015 Unofficial Map. We should also merge in BurnerMap data because their export now includes PlayaEvent camp id. I've also noted a few other issues with the location data.

  • Merge location data from 2015 Unofficial Map
  • Merge location data from BurnerMap
  • Ensure every art, camp, event has GPS coordinates. Currently only camps get GPS coordinates but it would be helpful, at least on iOS, to duplicate that data on the event object. Some events are hosted at art installations as well.
  • Forward geocoder for playaAddress->GPS? Entries on BurnerMap don't have GPS, as well as the location_string from the PlayaEvents API.
  • Ensure every art, camp, event has human-friendly Playa Address. We can use the new reverse geocoder to fill in this information for objects that only have GPS.
  • Fix the Burning Man policy that requires us to keep location data 'secret' until the gates open
  • Get early art location data from ARTery?
  • Get PDF placement map for additional accuracy?
