The Knight News Challenge this year is "How might we make data work
for individuals and communities?"
Proposals remain the same:
The key feature I think we need is ways to better represent the data
- dynamic maps of any desired time range. Server side and client side
should be looked at.
We can make it easier to get data in: Universities + GLAM -> OSM/OHM
of existing vectors.
Make an OpenAerialMap thing for old raster maps - catalogue of WMS /
Tiles with time?
Possibly add in georectification capabilities into iD editor?
+1 for a hangout also!
