Leaflet Mapper

Constituency Mapper is a Flask-based application designed to manage and visualize constituency data using a MySQL database and Overpass API. The application allows users to mark roads as visited and track leafletters.

Key Features

  • Interactive Map and Database Integration: Visualize and manage constituency data, including roads and their visited status.
  • Leafletter Management: Track activities of leafletters visiting various roads.

Key Functionality

1. Display Constituencies and Roads: The root route (/) displays a table of roads within a specified constituency. Users can mark roads as visited.

2. Display Map: The /map route displays an interactive map of the constituency, showing the roads and their statuses.
