NOA Route Design Tool
Map rectangle-drawing tool for visual, drag-and-drop rule-area selection and NOA route design.
Core Pain Points
- Inconvenient rule-area selection: When generating routes inside a bounded rectangular geographic area, manually inputting boundaries or repeatedly adjusting ranges is not intuitive.
- Lack of real-time feedback during operation: Without live preview, range deviation is easy to introduce.
- Route-design efficiency needs improvement: Traditional operation steps are many,不利于 completing target-area selection quickly.
Solution & Technical Implementation
- Activate the drawing tool: Click the "Draw Rectangle Area" button to activate map drawing; the mouse cursor switches to crosshair.
- Locate the starting point: On the map, find the desired starting point and hold down the left mouse button to prepare drawing.
- Drag to draw + real-time preview: Drag the mouse to the opposite corner; the system displays a semi-transparent rectangle in real time.
- Release to confirm: Releasing the mouse auto-confirms and locks the rectangular area; subsequent routes can then be generated.
Highlights
- Four-step intuitive interaction: Activate, locate, drag, confirm — low learning cost.
- Real-time range feedback: A semi-transparent rectangle shows boundaries instantly.
- Auto-lock result: Confirmation completes as soon as the mouse is released.
Business Value
- Simplifies complex area-parameter operations down to mouse drag-and-drop, reducing operation steps and communication overhead.
- Intuitive map interaction helps non-algorithm personnel quickly complete rule-area selection.
- The rectangle-drawing capability can be reused across different maps, test areas, and route-planning projects.
