Talk:Atlas

Project ideas.

1. "Map" activity, playing with maps : MediaMods & Erik Blankinship
2. Interactive atlas : simple view of the world, with free multilingual political map data

   support version with ultra-low disk version that may take a while to regenerate a new lens

   ability to add a static map (note geocoords of a few points on it, and the projection; add to kml database?)

3. OurStories overlays : sharing that metadata
4. Sensible Cities : wifi triangulation with access points...

   connect with Ypod

5. Map proposals (via G!?) : for georss, in and out; for museum without walls
6. Working with OpenAerialMap and similar : use georss for this?

   describe how to do superoverlays this way

   demo viewer app from Chris DiB?

7. Aggregation toolchain for the school server and global servers.
