Distance from park

A single definition to define how far an entity is from your chosen park in miles and what the estimated car travel time is in minutes. Single site installs still require the site node and should say 'default' - multi park installs should use the groupsite key for this specific distance/travel time.

Structure

{
  "site": "park-one",
  "distance": 2.09,
  "time": 6
}

Properties

site

Type : String - Required

For single park installs this should be 'default' else it should be the groupsite key this data relates to

distance

Type : Floating Point Numeric - Optional

This is distance from the park in miles. App will truncate floating points to two when rendering. If both points are zero the app will render it as an integer. The app will also prefix with mile or miles. eg "3.25 miles", "1 mile", or "22 miles". Default is 0.0

time

Type : Integer - Optional

Estimated driving travel time to this location in minutes. This should be an integer as minutes but will be rendered as hrs/mins eg 126 = "2 hrs 6 mins", 58 = "58 mins", 61 = "1 hr 1 min". Default is 0

Required Type Definitions

Floating Point Numeric - Reveal

Float and Double values are handled as normal JSON. Depending on the precision of the language sending/receiving the data can depend on the truncation of the decimal points. However due to the context of our data, only location lat/lng numbers will normally have more than 2-3 points.

{
  "cost": 55.5,
  "lat": 50.71245750791539,
  "lng":  -2.4619866156242995
}

Integer - Reveal

Standard JSON Integer - 0 is commonly considered to be a default value, unless it is an valid ID when -1 is used. For sort priorities 99 is used as the default.

{
  "key1": 9,
  "key2": 42,
  "arrayOfInts": [
    2,
    3,
    5,
    8
  ] 
}

String - Reveal

Standard JSON String - Often will have certain characters escaped depending what system is writing the JSON packet, however our parser only requires to have double quotes (") escaped. UTF-8 encoding is our standard, but others may be accepted if required. If line breaks are required in the text then the Rich Text / Multiline String type is used instead.

{
  "key1": "A string value",
  "key2": "Another string with an some \"quotes\" that need escaping",
  "arrayOfStrings": [
    "Item one as a string",
    "Item two as a string",
    "Item three as a string",
  ] 
}
