## Progress Made

### ✅ Metric Field Calculation Working

The `metric` field is now being calculated correctly:

#### Cables (LineString):
```json
{
  "metric": "Mileage: 0.9196; Footage: 4856"
}
```

#### Boundaries & Parcels (Polygon):
```json
{
  "metric": "Square Miles: 3.3141"
}
```

**Formula Used:**
- **Lines:** At 40° latitude, 1° longitude ≈ 53 miles, 1° latitude ≈ 69 miles
- **Polygons:** At 40° latitude, 1 degree² ≈ 3,657 square miles

**Code Added:**
- `_calculate_line_metric()` - Line length calculation
- `_calculate_polygon_metric()` - Polygon area calculation

### ❌ API Error: Field 'data' doesn't have a default value

**Error Message:**
```
Database Exception: SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1364
Field 'data' doesn't have a default value
The SQL being executed was: INSERT INTO `mapobject` (`mapprojectId`, `name`, ...
```

**What We Tried:**

1. **Attempt 1:** Send `data` as nested array of lat/lng objects
   - Result: ❌ Same error

2. **Attempt 2:** JSON-encode `data` field as a string
   - Result: ❌ Same error

**Example Data Being Sent:**

```json
{
  "mapProjectId": 16950,
  "name": "Zone 01 Boundary",
  "mapinfoobjecttypeId": 3,
  "data": "[{\"lat\": 40.7723..., \"lng\": -124.1857...}, ...]",
  "color": "#ffffff",
  "alpha": "0.40",
  "metric": "Square Miles: 3.3141"
}
```

## Analysis

### Root Cause

The error message "Field 'data' doesn't have a default value" is a **MySQL database error**, not a validation error. This indicates:

1. The Verofy API backend is attempting to INSERT into the `mapobject` table
2. The `data` field we're sending is **not being included** in the INSERT statement
3. The database column `data` has no default value, causing the query to fail

### Possible Reasons

#### 1. API Endpoint Not Fully Implemented
The `/map-info-object/create` endpoint may not properly handle the `data` field during creation.

#### 2. Missing Required Field
There may be another field we need to send that tells the API how to interpret the `data` field.

#### 3. Field Name Different for Creation
The field might be named differently when creating vs reading:
- Reading: `data` (from GET `/map-info-object/{id}`)
- Creating: `???` (for POST `/map-info-object/create`)

#### 4. Data Format Issue
The `data` field might need a different structure than what we see in GET responses.

## Comparison with Export

### From Map 15685 Export (GET response):

**Type 2 (Polyline/Cable):**
```json
{
  "mapinfoobjecttypeId": 2,
  "data": [
    {"lat": 40.760037779, "lng": -124.174677888},
    {"lat": 40.760068861, "lng": -124.171780846}
  ]
}
```

**Type 3 (Polygon):**
```json
{
  "mapinfoobjecttypeId": 3,
  "data": [
    {"lat": 40.761573196, "lng": -124.17190395},
    {"lat": 40.760796168, "lng": -124.173069332},
    ...
  ]
}
```

### What We're Sending (POST request):

Exactly the same format - but API is not accepting it.

## Recommendations

### Option 1: Contact Verofy API Support

This appears to be an **API bug** or **undocumented requirement**. We should ask:
1. Is the `/map-info-object/create` endpoint fully implemented?
2. What is the correct format for the `data` field when creating info objects?
3. Are there any required fields beyond what's documented?

### Option 2: Test with Manual Web Interface

Create an info object manually through Verofy's web interface, then:
1. Retrieve it via GET `/map-info-object/{id}`
2. Compare the structure
3. Look for any additional fields that were set

### Option 3: Alternative Approach

If info objects can't be created via API, we may need to:
1. Skip these layers for now
2. Import them manually through Verofy's web interface
3. Wait for API endpoint to be fixed

## Code Changes Made

### File: `/home/ahall/Sandbox/dragnddrop/backend/verofy_uploader.py`

**Lines 131-170:** Added metric calculation functions
```python
def _calculate_line_metric(self, geometry) -> str:
    """Calculate mileage and footage for cable lines"""
    # Implementation...

def _calculate_polygon_metric(self, geometry) -> str:
    """Calculate square miles for boundaries and parcels"""
    # Implementation...
```

**Lines 663-675:** Updated `_upload_cabinet_boundaries()`
```python
metric = self._calculate_polygon_metric(row.geometry)
info_data = {
    ...
    "metric": metric
}
```

**Lines 709-721:** Updated `_upload_cables()`
```python
metric = self._calculate_line_metric(row.geometry)
info_data = {
    ...
    "metric": metric
}
```

**Lines 756-768:** Updated `_upload_parcels()`
```python
metric = self._calculate_polygon_metric(row.geometry)
info_data = {
    ...
    "metric": metric
}
```

**Lines 958-986:** Updated `_create_info_object()`
```python
# JSON-encode the data field as a string (API may expect this)
if 'data' in info_data:
    info_data_copy = info_data.copy()
    info_data_copy['data'] = json.dumps(info_data['data'])
    # Send encoded version...
```

## Next Steps

1. **Document the API Issue**
   - Report to Verofy API team
   - Provide exact error message and request/response details

2. **Test Alternative Approaches**
   - Try different field names (`dataAsText`, `geometry`, etc.)
   - Try sending data without JSON encoding
   - Try minimal payload to see what works

3. **Verify Endpoint Status**
   - Check if endpoint is in beta/deprecated
   - Look for alternative endpoints for info objects

4. **Focus on Working Layers**
   - Continue with poles, segments, sites (working)
   - Fix access_points, network_elements, splicing
   - Come back to info layers once API issue is resolved

## Test Data

### Successfully Calculated Metrics

**Cabinet Boundary "Zone 01":**
- Area: 3.3141 square miles
- 6 coordinate points

**Cable "144F/EUR_Z07_DC_001":**
- Length: 0.9196 miles (4,856 feet)
- 2 coordinate points

**Parcel (Zone 01):**
- Area: 0.1362 square miles
- 5 coordinate points (closed polygon)

All metric calculations are working correctly and match expected format from Verofy exports.
