[OHM] sample filter test data - Maine

[Albin Larsson]

Hi,

Great Jeff, I lately started mapping Regent´s Park in London for the use as
a starting point in iD, for London we got multiply historical aerial
imagery, I thought that it would be a good first user experience... It
allows new user to get starting mapping London directly without any
research. Still other locations could be considered instead.

If scanned old maps are available under a open license we could serve them
as tile layers from tools like Maps Warper as default in iD so I guess it
would allow us to give that user experience in any area. This would require
that we have a instance of Maps Warper with only supported licenses and
georeferenced maps. Don't know about the Wikimaps Warper instance and its
relation to OHM(Tim?).
