NeedToPee

NeedToPee is a website for finding the nearest bathroom when you really, really need it.

Product development is managed on a private Trello Board available here: https://trello.com/b/kxg2wiJv/pee

The site is hosted on Github Pages and is available at http://michaeldowse.github.io/NeedToPee. Master is used as a development branch, the gh-pages branch represents what is currently in production.

Coverage

NeedToPee currently only supports public bathrooms administered by the Wellington City Council in the Wellington region.

Location Data

Location data should be provided in, or converted to a json array of locations. A location is a json object (described below) which must include a set of gps coordinates and may include a series of properties describing the facility which will be displayed directly to the user. All properties are optional but recommended.

{
  'type' : 'Toilet'
  'geometry' : {
    'type' : 'Point'
    'coordinates' : [{gps_x_coordinate}, {gps_y_coordinate}]
    'properties' : {
      'Open_hours' : '24 Hours'      // The facilities open hours, no format specified
      'Disabled' : 'Yes'             // Are facilities for disabled persons are available at this location? Yes or No
      'Suburb' : 'Wadestown'
      'Location' : 'Wadestown Road'  // Additional location details
      'Type' : 'Unisex'              // Other possible values: Male, Female
      'Change_room' : 'Yes'          // Are baby changing facilities available at this location? Yes or No
    }
  }
}
