Shawn Patterson gathered a current vehicle and equipment record from Facilities and Services. Sarthak Prasad, Olivia Messerges, and Shawn Patterson met on December 21, 2023 and January 18, 2024 to discuss the vehicle records. Olivia identified departments with five or more vehicles and Sarthak will draft an email to departments requesting that they appoint a fleet administrator. See the attached meeting notes, excel file, and summary of the excel file. 

The Land & Water iCAP team met on Teams from 1-2 PM on Friday, January 19th. Meeting minutes are attached.

Below are notes from the 1/18 C4 meeting:

Urban heat mapping campaign for CU area. The state climatologist has let Savannah know that the deadline is closing to participate in the heat mapping campaign. This would involve gathering volunteers to do temperature measurements around town. Other folks are working on sign up forms. 

The group discussed possible groups to reach out to in order to gather volunteers. 

Group voted to endorse this iniative. 

Climate action week 2024

Savannah is scheduling the dates. 

We don't want to just have events for eco minded people, we want to expand to people to learn about climate issues. 

Scheduling around other events is difficult as other events have higher traffic. Savannah has asked to be a part of the festival in order to have a hub in the festival in the fall. 

The floor was opened up to anyone who wanted to share their updates or ideas.

Group members advocated for multiple events for people to attend or participate in. 

The Education iCAP team met on Teams from 1-2 PM on Thursday, January 18th. Meeting minutes are attached.

Agenda

• Clarification of future meeting schedule and topics
• Update: Miriam Keep, Codie Sterner, and Michael McKelvey met to continue the discussion about embedding SSC project information in the SSC website: Discussion about SSC projects in iCAP Portal - January 16, 2024
• Recommendation to make Christina's iCAP Portal Header Page Layout #4: Tabbed Navigation (Figma) the default layout for all projects
  • For context, see final takeaway of previously mentioned SSC meeting
  • Would need to figure out a new way to make Project Header pages stand out

Discussion/Decisions:

• Agreed to move meetings to once per month; Quinn will take care of that
• Agreed to make the tabbed navigation layout the default layout for projects; Christina will consider possible alternate designs for the Project Header layout
• Decided to only show the SSC tab for projects which have SSC funding; hide it for all others
• Discussion of representing SSC and other student-initiated fees
  • If we start adding information about other fees (e.g. bike fee), should we group all the student-initated fees in a single tab (SSC, bike fee, etc.) or have separate tabs for each?
  • Single tab would group together logically related info, avoids tab overload
  • Multiple tabs would allow SSC to retain prominence on project pages, not dilute its impact and prestige
  • Decided to do a single SSC tab now and revisit if we add information about other student-initiated fees in the future

Miriam Keep, Codie Sterner, and Michael McKelvey met to continue the discussion about embedding SSC project information in the SSC website. Discussion topics included:

• Rough draft of SSC project embed filtering - still in development phase; need to add additional filters, map, only allow one Category to be selected, and several additional fields (e.g. file uploads)
• Discussed how to represent the SSC view of a project - e.g. custom project embed on SSC website, separate SSC-specific project page on iCAP Portal

Takeaways:

• SSC project embed filtering is looking promising - aesthetics need work and additional filters need to be implemented
• Christina's new Header Project layout would work well as the default layout for all projects - then SSC could just have its own tab! Would need to figure out how to make Header Projects stand out. Will bring this idea up at the larger group meeting on Friday.

Done:

• Print layout updated (see Objectives page)
• Rough draft of SSC project embed filtering
• Rough draft of Christina's tab-based layout (Dev site; requires VPN or on-campus connection)
  [Based on Christina's iCAP Portal Header Page Layout designs (Figma)]

Discussion:

• Question about a TODO: "Collections page: Add image upload option". At a previous meeting we had this TODO, but what was the context? Was it to have a thumbnail for each Collection? Or a banner image? Or an image gallery?
• Should we link to "Take Action" project from homepage?
  • Replace map link in Highlights?
  • Need to finish Take Action page content
• Continue discussion of Fancy Page Layout (see the 4 mockups in the October 21, 2022 meeting notes)
• Continue discussion of improving site's aesthetics
• Archiving projects
  • Add "Archived" checkbox?
  • Add "Archived" to Visibility options?
  • Add "Archived" to Project Status options? (probably not - this mixes the status of the project itself with whether we still want it to show up on the site)
  • Remove from nested listings, still publicly available?

TODO:

• Print styles:
  • ✅ Objectives page:
    • ✅ Do not bold metric titles
    • ✅ Put "(not shown)" on own line
  • Footer:
    • ✅ Replace old iSEE logo with current iSEE wordmark
    • ✅ Hide social media icons
    • ✅ Show F&S and iSEE logos side-by-side
• Main map:
  • See CSU's campus map (Sustainability section) for inspiration
  • Campus boundary, like ArcGIS Bicycle Map
  • Improve mobile filter?
  • Use heatmap when zoomed out, switch to markers when zoomed in?
• (long term goal) look into importing information from another source, e.g. SSC students without iCAP Portal access can put together info in a structured format for automatic import into iCAP Portal
• Metric search/display:
  • Theme (via connected Project, i.e. Theme -> Project -> Metric)
  • Most recent updates as of: (list of years) -> can we query Tracking data?
  • (Internal only) Last updated before (list of years) -> can we query Tracking data?
• (Low Priority) Make column headers click-sortable on Projects by Project Status page
• Fancy project layout mockups - keep tweaking #3 to improve contrast
• Discuss metrics
  • Metrics with lots of data
  • Consider how to handle old metrics that no longer track new data. Archive somehow?
  • Fun with math (e.g. combining multiple metrics)
  • Calculated Metrics on Dev site

Ideations:

• Map brainstorming:
  • What if we had a separate Campus Sustainability Tour expandable section, alongside Collections and Themes? Perhaps with a specific order to the locations and information about each location in the infowindow popup? We might have to hand-craft it rather than using Collections, but it might be worth it if we want an interface more like the CSU sustainability map. This could also work for any other bespoke sections we might want to include in the future.
  • Are there other things we'd like to highlight on the map beyond Themes and Collections? If we can think of them, Michael can try to figure out how to make it happen.
  • Michael is working on trying to make the map queries work asynchronously so each filter doesn't require a new pageload. This would make interactions with the map much snappier.
  • Would we like to provide the ability to view individual projects for each section in the sidebar, à la CSU's map?
  • Are there other categories we would like to include, either in addition to or instead of Collections and Themes? Is that information already in the iCAP Portal? If so, perhaps there's a way we can use it... If not, perhaps a new tagging system specifically for the map might help us achieve it?
  • Sarthak: would like to create a Biking Tour
  • Reed: highlight things students can see/experience
• SSC projects
  • May want to use this Archive of Funded Projects on old SSC site (2019) as a reference for showing SSC project info
  • Discussed using iCAP Portal projects for SSC projects page vs. maintaining own project pages directly on SSC website.
  • One possible challenge - SSC sometimes funds part of a project or provides funding for a period of time (e.g. 1 year) for a longer-term project, so only the project updates for that period of time are relevant, not all updates in perpetuity. How do we handle that?
  • Decided to start with map embed from Student Sustainability Committee Funded Projects collection, then look at adding card-based project embed as well.
  • SSC project integration discussion on 11/30/2023:
    • New projects need to be approved and located appropriately in portal hierarchy
    • Codie considers an SSC project worth adding once it has a CFOAP
    • Projects can be updated w/SSC info by SSC students/employees once they exist in portal
    • How to show projects with multiple funding allocations over time? (e.g. $100K in spring 2020, $100K in fall 2020)
      • Is it the same project over time? Sometimes it is, but sometimes the leaders change and the direction changes significantly
      • Discussed dusting off the Project Funding feature we'd deprecated several years ago. It looks promising for showing SSC's funding of projects!
    • Michael and Codie will meet next week to discuss specifics about what SSC needs the iCAP Portal to be able to do in order to use the iCAP Portal for the SSC website's project listing.
