[OHM] 4/24 OHM meeting notes

[Jeff Meyer]

Hi all -

We had another solid meeting today. Here are some quick updates:

- Launch date
  -- Moved targeted launch for OHM with time slider and updated OSM stack
to *1 July*.
  -- This will give us time to clarify the best approach for serving
raster-based tiles (see below)

- MVP feature dev
  -- Work continues on integrated time slider
  -- Prototype ready for review on dev server in 1-2 weeks
  -- Will publish link to prototype when ready to historic@
  -- Low-zoom level border development is next in dev queue after
timeslider effort
  -- Raster API approach:
     --- Meyer to publish an outline of the possible API plan for comment
so we can get better clarity on what this might look like
  -- More info: https://github.com/orgs/OpenHistoricalMap/projects/1

- Meyer to also publish draft marketing plan for review to @historic
  -- Will need assistance in brainstorming ideas & apporach

- Hosting
   -- Rob, Bert, and Seth are discussing how to best use existing hosting
server + Azure credits; still figuring out how to best use
   -- Existing server is Quad Core Xeon w/8 GB to spare & very low
utilization, but slow tile rendering; attached disk array is 22TB RAID 1
with hot backups
   -- Azure credits are $150 / mo
   -- AWS budget - not done yet, but should be ready today or tomorrow
      --- This is for proposed option of moving to AWS-based hosting and
deployment
   -- Need to add management plan to operating details

*- Next meetings:* 1 May (in 1 week) & 15 May (in 3 weeks)
   -- Meyer to send out separate meeting notification emails

*Attendees:*
- Meyer, Sanjay, Dan, Seth

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Jeff
