useful for our trip?

andi-g commented 11 years ago

Could use it to show where (and which kind of) things are going on during the trip. They do make awesome maps and invented something like css for mapping styles. I have seen one of their lead devs give a talk at an Ignite Spatial event and I got the impression that they would probably support such a project.

Cool, thanks Andi!

I looked deeper into mapbox.com & tilemill today – and am super impressed! I'll definitely get in touch with them as @andi-g suggested.

Great idea!

@gr2m did you reach anyone at Mapbox? Or any other conclusion if Mapbox would be useful for us? Also cc @bumi

gr2m commented 11 years ago

no, I did not get in touch with them, felt off my list. We can close this from my side

Sorry for gatecrashing your thread! But I happen to be seeing some of the folk from MapBox tonight as I am attending a drinks thing they are putting on in London. I'll do what I can to spread the good word.

thanks Luke :)
