I am a webmapping newbie so pardon any misnomers I am probably making.

I have a geoJSON file that represents garbage cans as lines running along a street (i.e. the line is an aggregated representation of all the cans on that street, so if 1 can is 20 lbs and there are 3 cans on the street, the line feature on that street will have a weight attribute of 60 lbs).

These lines have four attributes: weight, time (seconds per picking up all cans on that street), number of cans on the street, and the route number that services them. These attributes appear in a div at the bottom of the screen when you click/select a given line: enter image description here

Is it possible to allow the user/client to change the route attribute value in a manner that it changes the original geoJSON and then refresh the web page to see the new changes (lines are symbolized by route number)?

    The answer to your "Is it possible to...?" question is: Yes. It'll be useful to know what you've tried already, and whether the geojson is a static file in a webserver or if there is a GIS backend generating it. It's possible, but the solutions will depend on the current architecture of your system. Commented Mar 14, 2018 at 0:17

    As you've tagged GeoServer as the server software, the standard way of doing this would be to configure a transactional WFS service.
