Prepopulate StudyArea table

Opened this issue · 1 comments

I'm working on a StudyArea creation view (see #124) that lets users draw arbitrary geometries. However, I suspect UCD has some geometries they'd like to preload for common study areas: eg: Philadelphia, West Philly (/Philly neighborhoods), Clark Park, the Porch. I think we should ask them about this and see if they can share GeoJSON files that we can preload for them.

As we enter the final stretch of this project, it's become clear that we need a model for saving custom geographies for ACS data to compare to collected survey data. Instead of having three distinct location models (StudyArea, Location, and ACSArea), I wonder if it makes sense to combine StudyAreas and ACSArea somehow. Let's discuss!
