Time and Space Session?

Friday, May 23rd, 2008

I’d like to find out what you all are doing with time and space data, and applications like Simile Timeline, Google Earth, SketchUp, Second Life, or even conventional GIS software. Omeka has some geospatial features now — we could discuss future directions and perhaps do a little hacking. I hope Mikel Maron would be interested in talking about OpenStreetMap and implications for open historical geodata, and Bill Turkel about GeoDJ and that sort of locative exhibit appliance. I’d be surprised if many of you didn’t have equally interesting projects in time and space.

Any interest in such a session?

Somewhat related: I’m experimenting with using the OpenLayers (openlayers.org) javascript library as a tool for study and annotation of images on the Web. My demo is at atlantides.org/inscriptol/. It’s just an inscription tracing toy at the moment, but I’m eager to discuss how it might be enhanced to upload and share captured data with anybody who is interested.
