+- Richer client dashboard (multi-location at-a-glance, status rollup).
+- **Live project map** — upgrade the overview's basic location pins into a real
+  project map: pins colored by measuring/level, popups showing each location's
+  current reading, centered/zoomed to the project. (M1 ships the plain pin map;
+  this makes it a live status map.)
 - Surface each location's **threshold-alert status** (read-only) + an event/inbox
   view. Leans on the SLMM alert engine + dispatch.
 
+### Notes carried from M1
+- Tile headline metric is **Leq** (energy-average, the sound-monitoring compliance
+  metric) — chosen over the twitchy instantaneous Lp. If clients ever want a
+  different headline (e.g. Lmax for peaks), make it a per-deployment setting.
+
 ### M3 — Reports
 - Client-facing list + download of the daily baseline-comparison reports.
 - Depends on the FTP report pipeline (`feat/ftp-report-pipeline`) landing and
