mapping urban biosphere in Jerusalem

[Hagit Keysar]

Hi there

I've just published this research note: http://publiclab.org/notes/hagitkeysar/04-10-2014/mapping-urban-biosphere-in-jerusalem

I have a question there about mapping and collecting data - especially on using geo-tagged photography, maybe the tool developed by winteroot - Rhus? for enabling residents to participate during the event and beyond it.

pls let me know if you had tried it, or some other tool, and can share from experience..

Hi Hagit, 

Have you tried the annotation feature in mapknitter?

You can use it once you've exported your map. You will see the options on your map's page.

I've a tried it a few months ago, good reminder

will see how we can use it

we plan to export the map and process it in tilemill

can you export the MK annotation layers? or can it work together with the mapbox platform?

[Liz Barry]

Currently there's not a way to export annotations you add in mapknitter, and they don't show up on embedded maps but only when you look at a map inside mapknitter.
I have filed a bug related to this "annotation not visible in embedded maps"

https://github.com/jywarren/mapknitter/issues/160

But perhaps if you are planning a tilemill project, you have more complex graphic ideas in mind than what we originally designed mapknitter's annotation features for. However, if you could describe precisely what you are looking to do, perhaps it can inform how we expand mapknitter. It would be helpful to understand your use case.

sure, will do that soon. once we collect the data and start the process.

thanks!

Also, it'd be pretty easy to add an annotation export feature. What format would you want it in? GeoJSON? KML?

[Liz Barry]

sure, or csv?

Not sure yet, I'll get back to you about this
