Map rectifying
Using the UI research and codebase we did in the Wikimaps MapWarper project, we will bring map rectification features to Wikidocumentaries.
Map digitizing
Looking at the possibilities of different projects, especially hoping the OpenHistoricalMap evolve to be a map geometries repository that connects with Wikidata.
