visualizing the movement - "maptivism" ?

de parte de Gediz Er on 2013-07-25 18:26
Hello, I have been researching on how to visulize our movement in Turkey.

First findings were the *ushahidi *platform which was used for such
activity in many places in the world.

An ideal site would have a map, a calendar, a forum, and social networking
possiblities.

It would be a place to

1- pinpoint the issues on the map (if relevant) (example: mines,
constructions, police brutality, media bias)
2- discuss them in forums linked to the issue - share news, laws etc.
3- organize action and place it on the map and the calendar.
4- a *crisis map* could also be used in live tactical protest mapping with
fast data feed.

the map would need to have filtering possiblities, depending on date,
mapwindow, and category. Different icons for each category.

some issues are security, filtering noise, modes of information entry (e.g.
twitter, e-mail, instagram etc)

any ideas? any working example?

thanks. gediz
