Environmental
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.
