♻️ Apiary position sharing

This is a relatively low impact task, but one of growth-loop features.

The idea is that beekeeper has apiary, but usually its private information (unless its in the government registry). This feature tackles apiary position visibility between web-app users. In certain cases it may be important to actively share apiary position with other people.

  1. If you are an Industrial beekeepers and you want a buyer of bees, swarms or even hives to come to your location. So instead of just sending a google-link, you may want to send a link to our public page that would showcase more info
  2. If you are a Farmers and you had a pesticide exposure, you may want to send apiary position to others and
    1. highlight which fields are nearby that likely had the pesticide treatment
    2. highlight which hives were affected by the pesticide, linking videos as proof
    3. post the results in social media
  3. If you are a Backyard beekeepers and you are worried about Infestation of Varroa mite, you may want to know who are your neighbour beekeepers. And also share your position and varroa infestation levels.
  4. For Potential new beekeepers that want assistance, help, education from other beekeepers nearby, you may want to contact and talk to others (in addition to existing social networks)
