[HOT] Libraries without Borders - Ideas Box

[Yohan Boniface]

Hi all,


I've been in contact (through uMap) with Libraries without Borders [1].
Among all the great things we talked about, they showed me a project 
they are running named "Ideas Box" [2].
Basically, the idea is to provide a minimum culture access for disaster 
situations (books, computers, Internet access, films...).
They already provide some GPS in the box for mapping, but there is 
certainly more we can do with us.
The first element we are thinking to is an offline map for the area 
around where the box will be shipped.
I've started a pad [3] to start looking at the best technical options to 
do so.
I've a next meeting with their tech guy at the end of next week where I 
will expose him those options.

So please join the brainstorming if you feel :)

Yohan
