I believe strongly in the possibilities of trust, for use within the community as well as for outsiders just wanting to use the data and would want to, for example, filter the data using some kind of trust threshold. > * How could we incorporate more visualization tools directly, like > ITOMapper? > Ideally I think this should be approached at API level. There are so many visualizations you could think of, and which ones are useful depends on a lot of personal preferences. Some people may like to see particular feature groups highlighted (e.g. cycling networks), others will want to highlight changes that affect routing. A history-enabled API[2] would enable anyone to create these visualisations - along with many other tools.
