Concept notes

I'm trying to list exactly it is I want to accomplish with this interaction, so that I can better define the functions I need to build.

What should this do?

• Label counties (constant or via rollover)
• Load data about counties (I need to choose specifics)
• Visually display distribution of data throughout the state
• Give user some control (of levels below, increasing in user's favor)
  
  
  1. Set parameters
  2. User-choice from given parameters
  3. User-initaties new parameters
     (Choosing new county groups via multi-select menu or map)
  4. User loads own data set

Possible scripting needs:

• Load external actionscript
  • manage data relationships
  • how can this be cf powered?
• Generate new buttons/menu for dataset/parameter selections
• Rollover labels (fr. Xeriscape project)
• Change color
• Dynamic text display per county (included w/ labels)
• Determining color, possible spectrum to indicate quantity (relevance?)
• Browse and load external data
• Accessibility compliance through standards-enabled MCs -- are these attributes mutable through AS?

I'd also like to try to create documentation for this IF it is ultimately portable. That can be part of the interface.

Yikes, this is a pretty intense list. I'll see what of it I can accomplish and how relevant these items are as the project unfolds.
