I actually have a bunch of the code written for it, but I haven't touched it in over a year so I'd have to dust it off and see how far I got.<BR/><BR/>There are open questions as well. For example, if you select M0 should it show only M0 data or M0 data when available and M1000 data to fill in the gaps? Same question, but M1000 and M1100 ? Or M1100 and M1120 ?<BR/><BR/>This can be exposed to the user as options, I suppose, but the UI is a bit cluttered already. I need to make the options panel a true "accordion" display where the sections expand/collapse on use; search sorta-kinda does that already but it's a one-off hack.<BR/><BR/>Finally, most of the data isn't tagged with era, and the metadata certainly isn't (it's all roughly 1110). So there's a LOT of work to categorize the data. I wish the site was more amenable to collaboration. :(Joshua Bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877590477046380873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16809467.post-25085316323158422682009-04-12T05:45:00.000-07:002009-04-12T05:45:00.000-07:00I love your map.

IIRC you mentioned a long time ago the ambitious idea of making it era-selectable so that you could hit a radial button and see the UWPs/borders change just like zooming? That would be a great feature, assuming enough data existed to implement it (probably not).<BR/><BR/>If you plan to implement it, is it a long term plan or just an idea?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
