Hello,
At the upcoming Boston sprint, we are putting together an
environmental track.
So far we've identified three potential focus areas.
1) RESTful web services for AT content types and vocabularies
We have many use cases that involved the sharing/integrating content
and vocabularies between systems. We think that REST is an
appropriate technology for such goals. Our work will likely take the
form of:
Service providers that adapt AT content objects to be exposed
via REST
Tools to consume RESTful content/vocabularies into our systems.
2) Map gallery
This Product will facilitate organizing a collection of maps with
associated metadata and preview images. It would include search/
browse tools, and a way for people to request new maps be created.
The Nature Conservancy has an app that they use internally that may
be used as a reference design or componentized into a new tool.
3) plone4artists - image content-type
The forthcoming plone4artists image content type will feature
extraction of embedded metadata. We are particularly interested in
contributing to the ability to extract geo-tagged location metadata.
If you are interested in sprinting on these topics, we invite you to
join us. If these issues tools are important to your organization,
consider co-sponsoring this sprint. If you have ideas for other
topics to sprint on we are interested to hear those as well. For
more information contact Sally Kleinfeldt (
