PointSav Documentation

The engineering library for the PointSav platform — operating systems and services for regulated businesses that own their data, their AI, and their record-keeping outright. Where the monorepo holds the code, this wiki holds the reasoning: architecture, services, security, and the governance commitments that bind future development.

Location intelligence UX design philosophy

The PointSav Location Intelligence interface uses a Conclusion-First design philosophy — rendering ranked tier conclusions rather than individual data points — so a user comparing markets at a national zoom level sees the most defensible commercial nodes immediately, and only drills into individual operators when a node has earned the attention. The interface draws inspiration from professional-grade spatial platforms where complex multi-parameter models are rendered as intuitive layered navigation surfaces rather than legend-driven dot maps. The GIS orchestration surface delivers this design at production scale.

Quality Benchmark: The Professional Map

The interface draws inspiration from professional-grade spatial platforms (e.g., meteoblue.com), where complex multi-parameter models are rendered as intuitive, layered navigation surfaces. Key design patterns adopted from this benchmark include:

  • First-Class Layer Toggles: Analytical layers (Clusters, Catchment, OD Study) are presented as primary navigation controls, not secondary legend items.
  • Decision-Driven Visualization: The map renders conclusions (e.g., "This node is Tier 5") rather than individual data points, allowing for rapid cross-market comparisons.
  • Scale-Adaptive Legibility: Visual detail adapts dynamically to zoom level, ensuring a coherent national overview without sacrificing street-level precision.

Design differentiation: cluster grade as the primary unit

Unlike commercial GIS products that default to individual "dots on a map," the PointSav platform uses cluster grade as the primary visual and analytical unit. A user scanning the national map sees which clusters are worth their attention before they see any individual site. The map answers the ranking question first, not last. This differentiation reflects three design choices:

  1. Multi-hue tier encoding. Sites are color-coded across four tiers — Regional, District, Local, and Fringe — using a distinct hue per tier rather than a single gradient. A user distinguishes tiers by color family at a glance, not by judging shade intensity against neighboring markers.
  2. Structural guardrails. The interface enforces a visual hierarchy where Regional and District nodes dominate the national view, guiding the user toward the most defensible commercial nodes before the lower tiers compete for attention.
  3. Contextual drawer, not a modal. Clicking a cluster opens a side drawer that provides immediate municipal ranking, operator detail, and institutional support counts without losing map context — the underlying map stays visible and interactive behind the drawer.

Component architecture

The GIS surface's cluster inspector is a drawer component (internally named "BentoBox") that renders cluster-level metadata in a dense, scannable layout without requiring the user to leave the map view. The four-tier color scheme and the drawer pattern together are what make the cluster-as-primary-unit choice legible to a reader browsing a national-scale map.
