1. Define the user task.
Identify who needs the map, what they need to decide and which devices or field conditions matter.
Process
Test the decision behind the map.
Use representative locations and a clear task to shape the first release.
2. Review the information.
Check source ownership, identifiers, location formats, update timing and known uncertainty. Keep private location data in an agreed review channel.
3. Build a focused view.
Connect the required search, layers and record details. Agree access, location permissions and provider dependencies before implementation.
4. Check representative cases.
Test known locations, missing or ambiguous data, no results and the next operational action. Verify any field capture against its intended record.
5. Release and document.
Agree import, recovery and launch checks. Record provider responsibilities, data updates, limitations and the owner of corrections.
