[OHM] Redesigning the NYPL Building Inspector

[Rob H Warren]

I've put together a quick vocabulary for the interchange of control points in maps. The idea is that any data source can be use to setup the control points before warping / re-projecting, eg: a OHM town can be used to warp a small scale map or a geo:Point long/lat to geo-reference another. 

It's currently in OWL format here [1], but using the same tag names in different representations (json, key/value pairs) would go a long way for interoperability.

Feel free to import / pull / push / twist / etc.
