GeoBLR Sprint 2!

After the last meetup on PIN codes, we are thinking of doing a sprint to start working on some of the tasks that we outlined -

1. Consolidate all the existing PIN code data into a database.

2. Re-purpose Thej's OpenPostBox project to collect and verify existing data - http://openbangalore.org/postbox/

3. Start writing specification for the API.

We also want to introduce MapWarper.net (http://mapwarper.net/), a browser based georeferencing tool, by georeferencing some old maps of India (http://www.columbia.edu/itc/mealac/pritchett/00maplinks/colonial/plassey1757/plassey1757.html) and create mashups with it.

Feel free to bring some of your problems as well to the meetup we can all try and get some of it done! If you want to know more about the Sprint, read our previous post. (http://datameet.org/2014/06/24/the-geoblr-sprint-1-july-3-6pm-8pm/)
