Example map:

https://portal.geoseeq.com/sample-groups/78319a7c-c393-41a8-83d4-6a02eef498b4

The animated file should have two JSON file:

  1. The JSON map file: https://portal.geoseeq.com/sample-groups/78319a7c-c393-41a8-83d4-6a02eef498b4/analysis-results/e7882f3a-5c93-49df-a69f-1a666b1e2b14?file=639803dd-7d19-43c2-8e7f-26f4b5281407

  2. JSOn file with FeatureCollection that contains corindates of the polygons and keyvalues.

 

The JSON map file should contain the timeframe definitions, this way:

"timeline": { "frames": [ { "id": "frame_48128419187181115", "title": "2001 Jan", "key": "2001-01-01", "period": [978303600000,980981999999] }, { "id": "frame_912984841553091", "title": "2001 Feb", "key": "2001-02-01", "period": [980982000000,983401199999] }, ... { "id": "frame_8129519315645357", "title": "2001 Dec", "key": "2001-12-01", "period": [1007161200000,1009839599999] } ] }

 

  • id: Should be unique

  • title: These titles will be displayed in the legend.
