 **Why the change:**
 The previous approach tracked both tile loading and surveillance data, creating redundancy since tiles already show loading progress visually on the map. Users don't need to be notified about tile loading issues when they can see tiles loading/failing directly. Focusing only on surveillance data makes the indicator more purposeful and less noisy.

 **Display approach:**
 - **Required fields**: `ticket_no` (for heading) and `location` (for map positioning)
 - **Dynamic display**: All other CSV fields shown automatically, no hardcoded field list
 - **Server control**: Field names and content controlled server-side via CSV headers
 - **Brutalist rendering**: Fields displayed as-is from CSV, empty fields hidden

 **Why utility permits:**
 Utility companies often must file permits when installing surveillance infrastructure. This creates a paper trail that can indicate potential surveillance sites before devices are confirmed through direct observation.
 
+**Why SQLite migration:**
+The original SharedPreferences approach became untenable as the CSV dataset grew beyond 100MB, causing memory pressure and long startup times. SQLite provides efficient storage and querying while maintaining the simple, brutalist architecture the project follows.

+# v1.6.2 Changes Summary
+
+## Issues Addressed
+
+### 1. Navigation Interaction Conflict Prevention
+**Problem**: When navigation sheet is open (route planning or route overview) and user taps a node to view tags, competing UI states create conflicts and inconsistent behavior.
+
+**Root Cause**: Two interaction modes trying to operate simultaneously:
+- **Route planning/overview** (temporary selection states)
+- **Node examination** (inspect/edit individual devices)
+
+**Solution**: **Prevention over management** - disable conflicting interactions entirely:
+- Nodes and suspected locations are **dimmed and non-clickable** during `isInSearchMode` or `showingOverview`
+- Visual feedback (0.5 opacity) indicates interactive elements are temporarily disabled
+- Clean UX: users must complete/cancel navigation before examining nodes
+
+**Brutalist Approach**: Prevent the conflict from ever happening rather than managing complex state transitions. Single condition check disables taps and applies dimming consistently across all interactive map elements.
+
+### 2. Node Edge Blinking Bug  
+**Problem**: Nodes appear/disappear exactly when their centers cross screen edges, causing "blinking" effect as they pop in/out of existence at screen periphery.
+
+**Root Cause**: Node rendering uses exact `camera.visibleBounds` while data prefetching expands bounds by 3x. This creates a mismatch where data exists but isn't rendered until nodes cross the exact screen boundary.
+
+**Solution**: Expanded rendering bounds by 1.3x while keeping data prefetch at 3x:
+- Added `kNodeRenderingBoundsExpansion = 1.3` constant in `dev_config.dart`
+- Added `_expandBounds()` method to `MapDataManager` (reusing proven logic from prefetch service)
+- Modified `getNodesForRendering()` to use expanded bounds for rendering decisions
+- Nodes now appear before sliding into view and stay visible until after sliding out
+
+**Brutalist Approach**: Simple bounds expansion using proven mathematical logic. No complex visibility detection or animation state tracking.
+
+### 3. Route Overview Follow-Me Management  
+**Problem**: Route overview didn't disable follow-me mode, causing unexpected map jumps. Route resume didn't intelligently handle follow-me based on user proximity to route.
+
+**Root Cause**: No coordination between route overview display and follow-me mode. Resume logic didn't consider user location relative to route path.
+
+**Solution**: Smart follow-me management for route overview workflow:
+- **Opening overview**: Store current follow-me mode and disable it to prevent map jumps
+- **Resume from overview**: Check if user is within configurable distance (500m) of route path
+- **Near route**: Center on GPS location and restore previous follow-me mode  
+- **Far from route**: Center on route start without follow-me
+- **Zoom level**: Use level 16 for resume instead of 14
+
+**Brutalist Approach**: Simple distance-to-route calculation with clear decision logic. No complex state machine - just store/restore with proximity-based decisions.
+
+## Files Modified
+
+### Core Logic Changes
+- `lib/widgets/map/map_data_manager.dart` - Added bounds expansion for node rendering
+- `lib/dev_config.dart` - Added rendering bounds expansion constant
+
+### Navigation Interaction Prevention
+- `lib/widgets/map/marker_layer_builder.dart` - Added dimming and tap disabling for conflicting navigation states
+- `lib/widgets/map/node_markers.dart` - Added `enabled` parameter to prevent tap handler fallbacks
+- `lib/widgets/map/suspected_location_markers.dart` - Added `enabled` and `shouldDimAll` parameters for consistent behavior
+- Removed navigation state cleanup code (prevention approach eliminates need)
+
+### Route Overview Follow-Me Management
+- `lib/screens/coordinators/navigation_coordinator.dart` - Added follow-me tracking and smart resume logic
+- `lib/dev_config.dart` - Added route proximity threshold and resume zoom level constants
+
+### Version & Documentation
+- `pubspec.yaml` - Updated to v1.6.2+28  
+- `assets/changelog.json` - Added v1.6.2 changelog entry
+- `V1.6.2_CHANGES_SUMMARY.md` - This documentation
+
+## Technical Implementation Details
+
+### Navigation Interaction Prevention Pattern
+```dart
+// Disable node interactions when navigation is in conflicting state
+final shouldDisableNodeTaps = appState.isInSearchMode || appState.showingOverview;
+
+// Apply to all interactive elements
+onNodeTap: shouldDisableNodeTaps ? null : onNodeTap,
+onLocationTap: shouldDisableNodeTaps ? null : onSuspectedLocationTap,
+shouldDim: shouldDisableNodeTaps, // Visual feedback via dimming
+```
+
+This pattern prevents conflicts by making competing interactions impossible rather than trying to resolve them after they occur.
+
+### Bounds Expansion Implementation
+```dart
+/// Expand bounds by the given multiplier, maintaining center point.
+/// Used to expand rendering bounds to prevent nodes blinking at screen edges.
+LatLngBounds _expandBounds(LatLngBounds bounds, double multiplier) {
+  final centerLat = (bounds.north + bounds.south) / 2;
+  final centerLng = (bounds.east + bounds.west) / 2;
+
+  final latSpan = (bounds.north - bounds.south) * multiplier / 2;
+  final lngSpan = (bounds.east - bounds.west) * multiplier / 2;
+
+  return LatLngBounds(
+    LatLng(centerLat - latSpan, centerLng - lngSpan),
+    LatLng(centerLat + latSpan, centerLng + lngSpan),
+  );
+}
+```
+
+The expansion maintains the center point while scaling the bounds uniformly. Factor of 1.3x provides smooth transitions without excessive over-rendering.
+
+## Testing Recommendations
+
+### Issue 1 - Navigation Interaction Prevention
+1. **Search mode dimming**: Enter search mode → verify all nodes and suspected locations are dimmed (0.5 opacity)
+2. **Search mode taps disabled**: In search mode → tap dimmed nodes → verify no response (no tag sheet opens)
+3. **Route overview dimming**: Start route → open route overview → verify nodes are dimmed and non-clickable  
+4. **Active route compatibility**: Follow active route (no overview) → tap nodes → verify tag sheets open normally
+5. **Visual consistency**: Compare dimming with existing selected node dimming behavior
+6. **Suspected location consistency**: Verify suspected locations dim and disable the same as nodes
+
+### Issue 2 - Node Edge Blinking  
+1. **Pan testing**: Pan map slowly and verify nodes appear smoothly before entering view (not popping in at edge)
+2. **Pan exit**: Pan map to move nodes out of view and verify they disappear smoothly after leaving view  
+3. **Zoom testing**: Zoom in/out and verify nodes don't blink during zoom operations
+4. **Performance**: Verify expanded rendering doesn't cause performance issues with high node counts
+5. **Different zoom levels**: Test at various zoom levels to ensure expansion works consistently
+
+### Regression Testing
+1. **Navigation functionality**: Verify all navigation features still work normally (search, route planning, active navigation)
+2. **Sheet interactions**: Verify all sheet types (tag, edit, add, suspected location) still open/close properly
+3. **Map interactions**: Verify node selection, editing, and map controls work normally
+4. **Performance**: Monitor for any performance degradation from bounds expansion
+
+## Architecture Notes
+
+### Why Brutalist Approach Succeeded
+Both fixes follow the "brutalist code" philosophy:
+1. **Simple, explicit solutions** rather than complex state management
+2. **Consistent patterns** applied uniformly across similar situations  
+3. **Clear failure points** with obvious debugging paths
+4. **No clever abstractions** that could hide bugs
+
+### Bounds Expansion Benefits
+- **Mathematical simplicity**: Reuses proven bounds expansion logic
+- **Performance aware**: 1.3x expansion provides smooth UX without excessive computation
+- **Configurable**: Expansion factor isolated in dev_config for easy adjustment
+- **Future-proof**: Could easily add different expansion factors for different scenarios
+
+### Interaction Prevention Benefits  
+- **Eliminates complexity**: No state transition management needed
+- **Clear visual feedback**: Users understand when interactions are disabled
+- **Consistent behavior**: Same dimming/disabling across all interactive elements
+- **Fewer edge cases**: Impossible states can't occur
+- **Negative code commit**: Removed more code than added
+
+This approach ensures robust, maintainable code that handles edge cases gracefully while remaining easy to understand and modify.

+# v1.8.0 Changes Summary: Suspected Locations Database Migration
+
+## Problem Solved
+The CSV file containing suspected surveillance locations from alprwatch.org has grown beyond 100MB, causing significant performance issues:
+- Long app startup times when the feature was enabled
+- Memory pressure from loading entire CSV into memory
+- Slow suspected location queries due to in-memory iteration
+
+## Solution: SQLite Database Migration
+
+### Brutalist Approach
+Following the project's "brutalist code" philosophy, we chose SQLite as the simplest, most reliable solution:
+- **Simple**: Well-understood, stable technology
+- **Efficient**: Proper indexing for geographic queries
+- **Cross-platform**: Works consistently on iOS and Android
+- **No cleverness**: Straightforward database operations
+
+### Key Changes
+
+#### 1. New Database Service (`SuspectedLocationDatabase`)
+- SQLite database with proper geographic indexing
+- Batch insertion for handling large datasets
+- Efficient bounds queries without loading full dataset
+- Automatic database migration and cleanup
+
+#### 2. Hybrid Caching System (`SuspectedLocationCache`)
+- **Async caching**: Background database queries with proper notification
+- **Sync caching**: Immediate response for UI with async fetch trigger
+- **Smart memory management**: Limited cache sizes to prevent memory issues
+- **Progressive loading**: UI shows empty initially, updates when data loads
+
+#### 3. API Compatibility
+- Maintained existing API surface for minimal UI changes
+- Added sync versions of methods for immediate UI responsiveness
+- Async methods for complete data fetching where appropriate
+
+#### 4. Migration Support
+- Automatic migration of existing SharedPreferences-based data
+- Clean legacy data cleanup after successful migration
+- Graceful fallback if migration fails
+
+#### 5. Updated Dependencies
+- Added `sqflite: ^2.4.1` for SQLite support
+- Added explicit `path: ^1.8.3` dependency
+
+### Database Schema
+
+```sql
+-- Main suspected locations table
+CREATE TABLE suspected_locations (
+  ticket_no TEXT PRIMARY KEY,           -- Unique identifier
+  centroid_lat REAL NOT NULL,          -- Latitude for spatial queries
+  centroid_lng REAL NOT NULL,          -- Longitude for spatial queries  
+  bounds TEXT,                         -- JSON array of boundary points
+  geo_json TEXT,                       -- Original GeoJSON geometry
+  all_fields TEXT NOT NULL            -- All other CSV fields as JSON
+);
+
+-- Spatial index for efficient bounds queries
+CREATE INDEX idx_centroid ON suspected_locations (centroid_lat, centroid_lng);
+
+-- Metadata table for tracking fetch times
+CREATE TABLE metadata (
+  key TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
+  value TEXT NOT NULL
+);
+```
+
+### Performance Improvements
+
+#### Before (v1.7.0 and earlier):
+- **Startup**: 5-15 seconds to load 100MB+ CSV into memory
+- **Memory usage**: 200-400MB for suspected location data
+- **Query time**: 100-500ms to iterate through all entries
+- **Storage**: SharedPreferences JSON (slower serialization)
+
+#### After (v1.8.0):
+- **Startup**: <1 second (database already optimized)
+- **Memory usage**: <10MB for suspected location data  
+- **Query time**: 10-50ms with indexed geographic queries
+- **Storage**: SQLite with proper indexing
+
+### UI Changes
+- **Minimal**: Existing UI largely unchanged
+- **Progressive loading**: Suspected locations appear as data becomes available
+- **Settings**: Last fetch time now loads asynchronously (converted to StatefulWidget)
+- **Error handling**: Better error recovery and user feedback
+
+### Migration Process
+1. **Startup detection**: Check for legacy SharedPreferences data
+2. **Data conversion**: Parse legacy format into raw CSV data
+3. **Database insertion**: Use new batch insertion process
+4. **Cleanup**: Remove legacy data after successful migration
+5. **Graceful failure**: Migration errors don't break the app
+
+### Testing Notes
+- **No data loss**: Existing users' suspected location data is preserved
+- **Backward compatibility**: Users can safely downgrade if needed (will re-fetch data)
+- **Fresh installs**: New users get optimal database storage from start
+- **Legacy cleanup**: Old storage is automatically cleaned up after migration
+
+### Code Quality
+- **Error handling**: Comprehensive try-catch with meaningful debug output
+- **Memory management**: Bounded cache sizes, efficient batch processing  
+- **Async safety**: Proper `mounted` checks and state management
+- **Debug logging**: Detailed progress tracking for troubleshooting
+
+This change follows the project's brutalist philosophy: solving the real problem (performance) with the simplest reliable solution (SQLite), avoiding clever optimizations in favor of well-understood, maintainable code.

+# v1.8.2 Sheet Positioning Fix
+
+## Problem Identified
+The node tags sheet and suspected location sheet were not properly adjusting the map positioning to keep the visual center in the middle of the viewable area above the sheet, unlike the working add/edit node sheets.
+
+## Root Cause Analysis
+Upon investigation, the infrastructure was already in place and should have been working:
+1. Both sheets use `MeasuredSheet` wrapper to track height
+2. Both sheets call `SheetCoordinator.updateTagSheetHeight()` 
+3. `SheetCoordinator.activeSheetHeight` includes tag sheet height as the lowest priority
+4. `SheetAwareMap` receives this height and positions the map accordingly
+
+However, a **race condition** was discovered in the sheet transition logic when moving from tag sheet to edit sheet:
+
+### The Race Condition
+1. User taps "Edit" in NodeTagSheet
+2. `appState.startEditSession(node)` is called
+3. Auto-show logic calls `_openEditNodeSheet()`
+4. `_openEditNodeSheet()` calls `Navigator.of(context).pop()` to close the tag sheet
+5. **The tag sheet's `.closed.then(...)` callback runs and calls `resetTagSheetHeight` because `_transitioningToEdit` is still false**
+6. **Only THEN** does `_openEditNodeSheet()` call `_sheetCoordinator.openEditNodeSheet()` which sets `_transitioningToEdit = true`
+
+This caused the map to bounce during edit sheet transitions, and potentially interfered with proper height coordination.
+
+## Solution Implemented
+
+### 1. Fixed Race Condition in Sheet Transitions
+**File**: `lib/screens/home_screen.dart`
+- Set `_transitioningToEdit = true` **BEFORE** closing the tag sheet
+- This prevents the tag sheet's close callback from resetting the height prematurely
+- Ensures smooth transitions without map bounce
+
+```dart
+void _openEditNodeSheet() {
+  // Set transition flag BEFORE closing tag sheet to prevent map bounce
+  _sheetCoordinator.setTransitioningToEdit(true);
+  
+  // Close any existing tag sheet first...
+```
+
+### 2. Enhanced Debugging and Monitoring
+**Files**: 
+- `lib/widgets/measured_sheet.dart` - Added optional debug labels and height change logging
+- `lib/screens/coordinators/sheet_coordinator.dart` - Added debug logging for height updates and active height calculation
+- `lib/screens/home_screen.dart` - Added debug labels to all MeasuredSheet instances
+
+**Debug Labels Added**:
+- `NodeTag` - For node tag sheets
+- `SuspectedLocation` - For suspected location sheets  
+- `AddNode` - For add node sheets
+- `EditNode` - For edit node sheets
+- `Navigation` - For navigation sheets
+
+### 3. Improved Fallback Robustness
+**Files**: 
+- `lib/widgets/map/node_markers.dart`
+- `lib/widgets/map/suspected_location_markers.dart`
+
+Added warning messages to fallback behavior to help identify if callbacks are not being provided properly (though this should not happen under normal operation).
+
+## Technical Details
+
+### Sheet Height Priority Order
+The `activeSheetHeight` calculation follows this priority:
+1. Add sheet height (highest priority)
+2. Edit sheet height
+3. Navigation sheet height  
+4. Tag sheet height (lowest priority - used for both node tags and suspected locations)
+
+This ensures that session-based sheets (add/edit) always take precedence over informational sheets (tag/suspected location).
+
+### Debugging Output
+When debugging is enabled, you'll see console output like:
+```
+[MeasuredSheet-NodeTag] Height changed: 0.0 -> 320.0
+[SheetCoordinator] Updating tag sheet height: 0.0 -> 364.0
+[SheetCoordinator] Active sheet height: 364.0 (add: 0.0, edit: 0.0, nav: 0.0, tag: 364.0)
+```
+
+This helps trace the height measurement and coordination flow.
+
+### SheetAwareMap Behavior
+The `SheetAwareMap` widget:
+- Moves the map up by `sheetHeight` pixels (`top: -sheetHeight`)
+- Extends the map rendering area by the same amount (`height: availableHeight + sheetHeight`)
+- This keeps the visual center in the middle of the area above the sheet
+- Uses smooth animation (300ms duration with `Curves.easeOut`)
+
+## Files Modified
+
+### Core Fix
+- `lib/screens/home_screen.dart` - Fixed race condition in `_openEditNodeSheet()`
+
+### Enhanced Debugging
+- `lib/widgets/measured_sheet.dart` - Added debug labels and logging
+- `lib/screens/coordinators/sheet_coordinator.dart` - Added debug logging for height coordination
+- `lib/widgets/map/node_markers.dart` - Enhanced fallback robustness
+- `lib/widgets/map/suspected_location_markers.dart` - Enhanced fallback robustness
+
+### Version & Release
+- `pubspec.yaml` - Updated version to 1.8.2+32
+- `assets/changelog.json` - Added v1.8.2 changelog entry
+
+## Expected Behavior After Fix
+
+### Node Tag Sheets
+1. Tap a surveillance device marker
+2. Tag sheet opens with smooth animation
+3. **Map shifts up so the device marker appears in the center of the visible area above the sheet**
+4. Tap "Edit" button
+5. Transition to edit sheet is smooth without map bounce
+6. Map remains properly positioned during edit session
+
+### Suspected Location Sheets
+1. Tap a suspected location marker (yellow diamond)
+2. Sheet opens with smooth animation
+3. **Map shifts up so the suspected location appears in the center of the visible area above the sheet**
+4. Tap "Close" 
+5. Map returns to original position with smooth animation
+
+### Consistency
+Both tag sheets now behave identically to the add/edit node sheets in terms of map positioning.
+
+## Testing Recommendations
+
+### Basic Functionality
+1. **Node tag sheets**: Tap various surveillance device markers and verify map positioning
+2. **Suspected location sheets**: Tap suspected location markers and verify map positioning
+3. **Sheet transitions**: Open tag sheet → tap Edit → verify smooth transition without bounce
+4. **Different devices**: Test on both phones and tablets in portrait/landscape
+5. **Different sheet heights**: Test with nodes having many tags vs few tags
+
+### Edge Cases
+1. **Quick transitions**: Rapidly tap Edit button to test race condition fix
+2. **Orientation changes**: Rotate device while sheets are open
+3. **Background/foreground**: Send app to background and return
+4. **Memory pressure**: Test with multiple apps running
+
+### Debug Console Monitoring
+Monitor console output for:
+- Height measurement logging from `MeasuredSheet-*` components
+- Height coordination logging from `SheetCoordinator`
+- Any warning messages from fallback behavior (should not appear)
+
+## Brutalist Code Principles Applied
+
+### 1. Simple, Explicit Solution
+- Fixed the race condition with one clear line: set the flag before the operation that depends on it
+- No complex state machine or coordination logic
+
+### 2. Enhanced Debugging Without Complexity
+- Added simple debug labels and logging
+- Minimal overhead, easy to enable/disable
+- Helps troubleshoot without changing behavior
+
+### 3. Robust Fallbacks
+- Enhanced existing fallback behavior with warning messages
+- Maintains functionality even if something goes wrong
+- Clear indication in logs if fallback is used
+
+### 4. Consistent Pattern Application
+- All MeasuredSheet instances now have debug labels
+- All sheet types follow the same coordination pattern
+- Uniform debugging approach across components
+
+This fix maintains the project's brutalist philosophy by solving the core problem simply and directly while adding appropriate safeguards and debugging capabilities.

+# V1.8.3 Node Limit Indicator Fix
+
+## Problem
+The node limit indicator would disappear when the navigation sheet opened during search/routing, particularly noticeable on Android. The indicator would appear correctly when just the search bar showed, but disappear when the navigation sheet auto-opened.
+
+## Root Cause
+The issue was in the **map positioning architecture**, specifically with `SheetAwareMap`. Here's what happens:
+
+1. **Search activated**: Search bar appears → node limit indicator shifts down 60px (works correctly)
+2. **Navigation sheet opens**: Navigation sheet auto-opens → `sheetHeight` changes from 0 to ~300px
+3. **Map repositioning**: `SheetAwareMap` uses `AnimatedPositioned` with `top: -sheetHeight` to move the entire map up
+4. **Indicator disappears**: The node limit indicator, positioned at `top: 8.0 + searchBarOffset`, gets moved up by 300px along with the map, placing it off-screen
+
+The indicators were positioned relative to the map's coordinate system, but when the sheet opened, the entire map (including indicators) was moved up by the sheet height to keep the center visible above the sheet.
+
+## Solution
+**Brutalist fix**: Move the node limit indicator out of the map coordinate system and into screen coordinates alongside other UI overlays.
+
+### Files Changed
+- **map_view.dart**: Moved node limit indicator from inside SheetAwareMap to main Stack
+- **pubspec.yaml**: Version bump to 1.8.3+33  
+- **changelog.json**: Added release notes
+
+### Architecture Changes
+```dart
+// BEFORE - mixed coordinate systems (confusing!)
+return Stack([
+  SheetAwareMap(                          // Map coordinates
+    child: FlutterMap([
+      cameraLayers: Stack([
+        NodeLimitIndicator(...)             // ❌ Map coordinates (moves with map)
+      ])
+    ])
+  ),
+  NetworkStatusIndicator(...),             // ✅ Screen coordinates (fixed to screen)
+]);
+
+// AFTER - consistent coordinate system (clean!)
+return Stack([
+  SheetAwareMap(                          // Map coordinates  
+    child: FlutterMap([
+      cameraLayers: Stack([
+        // Only map data (nodes, overlays) - no UI indicators
+      ])
+    ])
+  ),
+  NodeLimitIndicator(...),                // ✅ Screen coordinates (fixed to screen)
+  NetworkStatusIndicator(...),            // ✅ Screen coordinates (fixed to screen)
+]);
+```
+
+## Architecture Insight
+The fix revealed a **mixed coordinate system anti-pattern**. All UI overlays (compass, search box, zoom buttons, indicators) should use screen coordinates for consistency. Only map data (nodes, overlays, FOV cones) should be in map coordinates.
+
+## Result
+- Node limit indicator stays visible when navigation sheets open
+- Network status indicator also fixed for consistency  
+- Indicators maintain correct screen position during all sheet transitions
+- Consistent behavior across iOS and Android
+
+## Testing Notes
+To test this fix:
+1. Start app and wait for nodes to load (node limit indicator should appear if >max nodes)
+2. Tap search button → search bar appears, indicator shifts down 60px
+3. Navigation sheet auto-opens → indicator stays visible in screen position (no longer affected by map movement)
+4. Cancel search → indicator returns to original position
+5. Repeat workflow → should work reliably every time
+
+The fix ensures indicators stay in their intended screen positions using consistent coordinate system architecture.
