Mapping Data using Timelines #152

Open Spencerx opened 10 years ago

Spencerx commented 10 years ago

Atom or RSS feeds should be supported in tIme mapper.

Grokking and getting visualisations and timelines in customisable forms shouldn't be a headache when you have working or constantly updated HTML5 standard to start with. Basically there're a few ways to visualise data from feeds or data sources that are not spread sheets for portfolio or timeline based tools. Using a spreadsheet isn't the most efficient when dealing with Linked Data Sources that's anything online that's data or content with metadata in any format be it flatfiles, CSV, logs, microdata, JSON, XML, or RDF.

Anyone else to care to add anymore to this?

That's specifically for JSON and CSV, a first step. Plenty of blogs still use RSS and Atom with GitHub using the latter. I still have to spend more time going through possible solutions for this.
