FWIW, the University of Oxford has an 800th Birthday coming up soon. http://www.rustprivacy.org/2012/roadmap/oxford-university-area-map.pdf The geo coordinates, founding dates etc. for the Colleges and Halls are available on the University site. The lo-res sunrise and sunset data is available in spreadsheets at http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/gmd/grad/solcalc/calcdetails.html My offering has some *cough* complete lack of artistic promise and bandwidth crushing size *cough* limitations, but I had fun :-) It would be nice to see this *cough* done well *cough* duplicated. --Gannon ________________________________ From: Andy Turner <A.G.D.Turner@leeds.ac.uk> To: 'Kingsley Idehen' <kidehen@openlinksw.com>; "public-rww@w3.org" <public-rww@w3.org>; "public-lod@w3.org" <public-lod@w3.org> Cc: "chippy2005@gmail.com" <chippy2005@gmail.com>; "suchith.anand@nottingham.ac.uk" <suchith.anand@nottingham.ac.uk> Sent: Thursday, September 19, 2013 3:36 AM Subject: RE: Maphub -- RWW meets maps Interesting work.
