Hackathon
We're hosting Europeana's hackathon as part of THATCamp London 2013. This will give Wikimedia community developers and GLAM developers the opportunity to come together, share ideas and expertise, squash bugs and write cool new features.
Suggested Development Themes
- Work on the GLAMwiki toolset: Europeana's developing team will be present at the hackathon and they have a bunch of things they would like your help with!
- Open Data/Content/Communities: Mashups of Europeana metadata coming from UK providers, with Wikipedia/Wikimedia resources and content, data from OpenStreetMap, Projekt Gutenberg and other open data providers from the UK.
- Mobile, including Augmented Reality: Mobile services that are building on the Wikimedia and Europeana API, such as packaging and conceptualizations of content, mash-ups with check-in services, augmented reality overlays, support for mobile upload to Wikimedia that control/compare/connect the uploaded media to Europeana's metadata etc.
- Structured/semantic data: Building and exploiting structured/semantic data together with WikiData and Dbpedia.
Suggested UK Open Data Sources
Please list your suggestions of good Open Data sources from the UK that we should work on:
