<div dir="ltr"><div>Dear Community Members,</div><div><br></div><div>My
name is Aditi Mohan Sawant. I am a Computer Science graduate from
Mumbai University, pursuing my Master's degree in Geoinformatics and
Natural Resources Engineering under Centre of Studies in Resources
Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Mumbai, India. I am
on GitHub with username "aditis1204" [1] and on LinkedIn [2].<span></span><span></span><br></div><div><br></div><div>My
Project for GSoC 2020 is "Enhancing ARScale and CloudAnchor support to
the MapMint4ME Android Application"[3]. In GSoc 2019, AR support to the
MapMint4ME was added. The support was to implement ARScale and
CloudAnchor support to the MapMint4ME application. The CloudAnchor was
used to implement anchors for representing virtual world object. In this
project, we aim to Enhance ARScale and CloudAnchor support to
MapMint4ME Android Application, as mentioned in my proposal[4]</div><div><span></span><span></span><br></div><div>So
idea is, while capturing images, sometimes the user wants to add some
extra information for more understanding. Current state allows the user
to draw shapes and visualize changes in real time. But this AR scene
will not be available once the app closes. So the idea is to store
Anchors locally and the entire AR scene into some intermediate format
which later can be used for visualization at some stage in future by the
user hence helping to analyse the data at later stage. Also I am
planning to calculate area of selected anchor space and display it to
user in real time. Using this feature user will experience changes in
real time. Also, planning to extend some UI features for representing
GPS details so that we can integrate real world Lat-Long values to
Virtual world AR anchors. This will improve process of information
gathering and will be beneficial for community.<span></span><span></span><br></div><div><br></div><div>I will be implementing this on GitHub Repo[5] and will update regularly project wiki which will show my regular progress.[6]<span></span><span></span>.</div><div><br></div><div>Any
suggestions, or comments from the community members on the project idea
are welcome so that I can reanalyze my project accordingly and it will
be beneficial for everyone.<span></span><span></span><br></div><div><br></div><div>Lastly, I would like to thank OSGeo as well as the MapMint community,<br></div><div>for
giving me this opportunity. Since my undergraduate, I was always
excited and wanted to contribute to Open Source community. This is a
dream come true situationĀ for me and I am really excited for this new
challenge. I will do my best during this summer to achieve great success
and to do significant contribution to the OSGeO Community!<span></span><span></span><br></div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div>Aditi Sawant<br><div><br></div><div>[1]<a href="https://slack-redir.net/link?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Faditis1204&v=3" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/aditis1204</a></div>[2]<a href="https://slack-redir.net/link?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fin%2Faditi-sawant-a4baa4122%2F&v=3" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/aditi-sawant-a4baa4122/</a><br>[3]<a href="https://slack-redir.net/link?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsummerofcode.withgoogle.com%2Fprojects%2F%235915310835630080&v=3" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/projects/#5915310835630080</a><br>[4]<a href="https://slack-redir.net/link?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fdocument%2Fd%2F1qO_U_u-sf3eC5CsdbihdAAV6Z8_z99VaGq6kZykK7wc%2Fedit%3Fusp%3Dsharing&v=3" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qO_U_u-sf3eC5CsdbihdAAV6Z8_z99VaGq6kZykK7wc/edit?usp=sharing</a><br>[5]<a href="https://slack-redir.net/link?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Faditis1204%2FMapMint4ME_shapes%2Ftree%2Fmaster%2FMapMint4ME_shapes&v=3" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/aditis1204/MapMint4ME_shapes/tree/master/MapMint4ME_shapes</a><br>[6]<a href="https://slack-redir.net/link?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwiki.osgeo.org%2Fwiki%2FEnhancing_ARScale_and_CloudAnchor_support_to_the_MapMint4ME_Android_Application%23Idea&v=3" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Enhancing_ARScale_and_CloudAnchor_support_to_the_MapMint4ME_Android_Application#Idea</a><div class="gmail-adL"><br clear="all"><br></div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail-adL"><div><div><br><br></div></div></div></div>
