This was the odyssey.js killer feature, but probably also what made it unsustainable.

The simplest editor should:

  • allow me to set a map position and record center, zoom, pitch
  • allow me to set feature properties for that step, like title, text, or anything else a custom action needs
  • set an action name

It may also be worth having examples of using a Google Sheet or geojson.io.

It would be nice to start with an existing dataset, like a CSV or GeoJSON file, and edit features from there. This is kind of like geojson.io, but updated a bit and more focused on things you'd want for storytelling.

One thing I've thought about a lot with this whole project: I don't have a prescribed UI for anything here. Features don't need a title or text field, or whatever. That's all up to how you use it.

But maybe an editor should nudge you toward some common fields. Maybe this belongs in #4, too.

Looks like Tom MacWright forked his own project into geojson.net. That might be pretty close to what I need here.

Updated: It's dead now.
