I think there is some confusion. Those of us who work for corporations don't want a commercial provider (Mapbox, Google, etc) We need to keep to freely available solutions. This generally looks like running our own tileset servers and then something like leaflet to serve the mapping visualization. ECharts looks nice and even has a rudimentary leaflet plugin. My only initial concern is that it is introducing more layers of complexity; however, that may be fine. In general, I am new to the community. I am currently scoping the work that would need to be done in order for us to use this project. Defining a good default visualization framework is great. Outlining a formal way to contribute plugins and defining how to create a plugin is much better. It looks like echarts will make an excellent default for the visualizations. However, realistically we will probably have to create some more custom working visualizations for our use cases. If they are generalizable we would be happy to push them to a less formal community plugin visualization library that users can pick/choose what types to install. I would greatly recommend such a "visualization library" be created to allow folks to contribute a wider variety of charts. No matter what library you go with, you will get a much larger variety of use cases covered if you harness the open source community to contribute new chart types. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
