The Knight News Challenge this year is "How might we make data work for individuals and communities?"
Proposals remain the same: The key feature I think we need is ways to better represent the data - dynamic maps of any desired time range. Server side and client side should be looked at. We can make it easier to get data in: Universities + GLAM -> OSM/OHM of existing vectors. Make an OpenAerialMap thing for old raster maps - catalogue of WMS / Tiles with time? Possibly add in georectification capabilities into iD editor? +1 for a hangout also!
