Medium to longer term we'll want to be able to highlight
places/countries/geographic features/whatever (very useful!) and
potentially other sorts of data sets (eg a map of some historical
whatsit), topographic map tiles, etc etc.
I'm involved on this project as a developer, with interest in making the
setup flexible as possible to support other kinds of maps at a later time.
NASA World Wind imagery is something that we definitely would like to
include, as a second thing after we get OpenStreetMap deployed. We also want
to provide an added available layer with icons showing locations of
Wikipedia articles.
It will be some time before we get to these and other ideas. In the
short-term, we are focusing specifically on OpenStreetMap and getting the
technical infrastructure setup.
