Goals:
- Build a cross platform mobile application that relays the latest GPS position of the app user to a backend server
- The app should be able to relay position continiously (unsure if it will be able to run in the background)
- The backend should store the position data from all the investigators canvassing, and it should have an endpoint for returning the latest position of all the investigators (possibly a websocket)
- The mobile app should have a map to render the positions of the investigators
Further Tasks
- Have the backend send a push notification to investigators who are close to each other [some progress made on push_notifications branch]
- Be able to see the paths of of canvassing investigators to prevent investigator overlap
- Allow investigators to enter their projected path so they can get directions and let other investigators know of their plans
