What we have
We have designed a simple timeline that depicts the following.
- Parent Gazette as a larger node, the root gazette that would formulate a new organizational structure.
- Child Gazette is a smaller node, the amendments on the root gazette are defined as a child.
- Each node click would pop up a data summary and a way to access the gazetted document from the government website.
- Timeline contains sliders with a basic minimal functionality.
- Each Parent Gazette and its children are shown in one colour that highlights a segment in the timeline that could refer to a new government, but this needs verification.
What we want to do
We need to improve this timeline such that the data is displayed as shown below.
- Improve the timeline scrolling functionality. It should be able to go through time backwards and forward till the latest day we have data to show.
- And we should be able to zoom in on the timeline like we adjust the resolution.
- Timestamps need to be clear and should be easy to get the date of nodes by hovering over or clicking.
- Nodes belonging to one group (parent and children) must be linked or shown in a very clear way.
The design choices are open to suggestions. We don't want to reinvent the wheel by writing our timeline to do this as long as there exists a timeline library which can do this for us. But in case we don't have that kind of a timeline library, we should take an approach by modularizing this development on top of something like d3 or a similar tool which supports data visualization.
