Use Panel or Voila and compatible UI tools

[mwengren]

Hey team, we talked about this, but for the working version of this tool when it gets there, we should use:

• EarthSim (map control) + HoloViz (plotting) + Panel (dashboard/webapp) or
• ipyleaflet (map control) + bqplot (plotting) + Voila (dashboard/webapp)

Update 2021/02: we've mostly settled on ipyleaflet + HoloViz + Panel for working versions of this notebook so far. The other pathway is still a possibility but so far HoloViz + Panel seem to be working well. Also, not sure if ipyleaflet integration with Panel is still an issue or not.

More to consider:
data shading for the plotting, should handle +million points
Use an if clause to determine if shading is needed (if more than x number of points, do shading, otherwise do normal plotting)

Hi @mwengren!

I think bqplot (https://github.com/bloomberg/bqplot) is the library to go for plotting if we use Voila. It's mentioned in several Voila notebooks.

Hey team, we talked about this, but for the working version of this tool when it gets there, we should use:

• ipyleaflet (map control) + _____ (plotting) + Voila (dashboard/webapp)

TBD...
