Sajjad, This sounds like an interesting idea - effectively an extension to embedding a simple OSM map on a web page to include data from another source. While I think this is possible with existing javascript libraries such as OpenLayers, I think the main aim of this project is to make that easy for a more casual user, who does not speak much JavaScript. It think this would be a useful contribution. It is also very nice to see suggestions coming from prospective students, thank you!
Does anyone else have any thoughts on this? Thanks Graham. On 14 March 2010 17:22, Sajjad Anwar <sajja...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I have put forward an idea into the GSoC 2010 wiki page.
