Redevelopment of mapping tools on EXPERIENCE and Cycling UK website

Cycling UK is looking for an agency to help develop mapping functionality in D9 initially for the EXPERIENCE project.

Cycling UK uses maps on its website to show the location of cycling-related resources and events from its own database; and to show the routes of recommended bike rides.

It currently also uses a separate mapping tool to enable users to plan bike journeys.

Currently all mapping is D7 and we are looking to transition to D9.

We are looking for an agency to produce the following deliverables for this work: o Fully working maps for POIs, Routes, Events, Groups, integrated with Cycling UK's database, with full search & filter and list-view functionality o Provided on demo landing pages.

Set up a new content type to enable Cycling UK to create new pages with custom layers, title, teaser, thumbnail image. o With the question resolved of whether the fully functional version can be used when embedded in a page, or whether it needs to be shown in a standalone map view o Demo editorial pages with manually configured maps in them, and configuration tools o Provide design and build; collaborate on user testing To do this we are seeking a Drupal 9 experienced web agency or developer, who can provide: • A headless React-based SPA (single page application) • React Leaflet experience and knowledge (or equivalent such as Mapbox GL JS) • Drupal CMS API endpoint experience • Experience and knowledge of OS maps, OpenStreetMap or OpenCycleMap for imagery • Experience in API integrations • The work must achieve WCAG2.1AA access standards. • The solution must be fully responsive to fit within a custom bootstrap theme created by Cycling UK. • The solution must give consideration to working as well as possible on devices with slow data connections eg 3G • The solution should be built on standard secure frameworks that can be maintained in the future by Cycling UK In future phases, Cycling UK and EXPERIENCE are open to the possibility of providing map-based services to users in ways other than via its website, eg via apps.

Cycling UK is one of 14 partners collaborating on EXPERIENCE, a four-year experiential tourism project across six pilot regions in England and France.

Experiential tourism connects visitors with the essence of a place and its community, and map-based functionality is key to this.
