We need a name for StoryRAMP products that isn't "StoryRAMP", for the following reasons:

  1. It's too close to StoryMap (an ArcGIS product from Esri)
  2. It's not bilingual and wouldn't translate well (Best I can come up with is "PCAR L'Histoire" which rhymes but still doesn't make sense).

Considerations:

From the existing suggestions, I quite like RAMP Folio, RAMP Book, RAMP Stamp, and Tour de RAMP.

'RAMP Gazetteer' for the throwback.

Shortlist from the suggestions above (thanks everyone!), we will discuss in a future meeting:
