</ul>

<h4>What is a Feature?</h4>
<p>The term “Feature” is used in the cartographic context. A representation of a real-world object on a map (<a href="https://support.esri.com/en/other-resources/gis-dictionary/term/dcc335be-78ae-4bd2-b254-b44c37343f75" rel="nofollow ugc">feature|Definition – Esri Support GIS Dictionary</a>).<br />
Within this plugin, a Feature can represent a simple location (Marker), a way/route/track (Polyline) or an Area (Polygon/Rectangle).<br />
A couple of properties are stored with the Feature, eg. appereance and popup-content data.</p>
<h4>How does the Plugin work?</h4>
<p>A Feature is saved as a post type, and not saved to the Block!</p>
<ul>
<li>The Plugin registered a new custom-post-type ‘geom_feature’. Each geom_feature is used to store a single cartographic Feature, formatted in geoJSON. The cartographic Feature and other data (appearance, popup-content …) are stored as post-meta.</li>
<li>The geom_feature is registered without wordpress ui (List table and editing screen) or appearance in admin-navigation or admin-bar.</li>
<li>When editing any post with gutenberg, the ‘Geo Masala Map’ block displays a leaflet map and some settings-panels beneath it. All crud actions (create, read, update, delete) for geom_feature(s) are handled within the editor block using the wp rest api and its backbone client. All geom_feature crud actions are saved immediately (Some ui elements have reset/save buttons).</li>
<li>default post_status for geom_feature(s) is ‘draft’.</li>
<li>The Features-Panel lists geom_features. Features on Map are highlighted. If a Feature gets removed from map, the geom_feature is still saved and available to use.</li>
<li>Therefor a Feature created by one post can be used in another post as well (depending on the individual feature settings). All changes made to a geom_feature are saved immediately and will effect all posts where the Feature is displayed.</li>
<li>All attributes related to the map (and not to its features) are stored as block attributes.</li>
</ul>
<h4>In Development</h4>
<p>The Plugin is in early development (and needs a sponsor to go on).<br />
Some ui will change and more options will be added.</p>
<p>Coming soon hopefully:</p>
<ul>
<li>wiki and tutorials</li>
<li>Possibility to draw routes on a map.</li>
<li>Import for gpx/geoJSON/kml</li>
<li>Method to add altitude and slope values for features</li>
<li>Elevation profile for line/routes</li>
<li>Color line/routes by z value or slope</li>
<li>…</li>
</ul>
<p>Known issues:</p>
<ul>
<li>Currently there is a maximum for hundred Features, will be changed in future.</li>
<li>Feature Sharing: The popover control controls if the Feature appears in a Feature-Pool. If it is already in use somwhere, it will still be used, but just not displayed in Feature-Panel.</li>
</ul>
