Motivation

Save resources and execution time

Proposition

Look into the possibility of making areaDivider asynchronous (wrapping in a promise?) to save resources and process several divisions in parallel

Motivation

Save resources by not computing the zones at every area update.

Proposition

• add a boolean zonesComputed to the Dynamo table and the Area type (default: false)
• if true, retrieve the zones from S3
• if false, generate the zones, store them to S3 and update the Dynamo table

Motivation

Better API resources management

Proposition

• make the rate at which the scheduler is called configurable on deployment
• make the number of api requests per time frame configurable on deployment

Tweak the two of them to get best performance, as long as rate * number < api limit

Motivation

If there are several areas of wildly different sizes, it is possible to not be efficient in the division because one may be too tiled in zones compared to its size

Proposition

Make the precision of the tiling dependent on the area (square kilometers)

Possible caveat: this would be highly inefficient for an area resembling an elongated bar for example
