All - FYI - all has not been quiet on the Historical Mapping front during the Birthday sprint weekend.
- *Dynamic updates* - tile serving updates seem to be fixed... give 'er a shot and let me know if it's working (or not for you). The problem, once discovered, as many are, was small and easily fixed. - *Carto-based styling* - we're now switched over to Carto for our styling. If there are changes you'd like to make, please check out our stylesheets at https://github.com/OpenHistoricalMap/ohm-carto, which you can check out, test with TileMill. Once you're happy with your changes, you can do a pull request and we can get these styles updated on our server. If that sounds waaaay too techie (because it is), send me a note directly & we can get you up and running. - *A (soon to be time) filtered layer* - called Experimental is now up on the Sandbox. Go here: http://www.openhistoricalmap.org/?lat=40.79433&lon=-119.2171&zoom=17&layers=Hand then select the Experimental layer. You'll see some of the point change. So... there's a first step toward filtering based on time rules. Thanks to Mikel and Dan Vanderkam for working on that out in DC. Other issues coming soon: - *Coastline updater* - I'm working to get this running so that we can see shorelines updated as we remove man-made landfills and piers, particularly in urban areas. - *Crazy stuff* - I'm not sure what Rob Warren is doing, but I think he has some fun stuff related to linked data up his sleeve & coming soon. As background, we have had a couple server-related issues over the past couple of months. I'm hoping we can track those issues down and keep it running more reliably moving forward. I hope to have more to share in the near future, take care, Jeff -- Jeff Meyer Global World History Atlas www.gwhat.org [email protected] 206-676-2347 OpenStreetMap: Mapping with a Human Touch osm: Open Historical Map (OHM)<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Open_Historical_Map> / my OSM user page <http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/jeffmeyer> t: @GWHAThistory <https://twitter.com/GWHAThistory> f: GWHAThistory <https://www.facebook.com/GWHAThistory>
