[foss4g2014] Who wants to make a map?

[David Mangold]

OSM could work but might be a bit too complex and non-specific for the 
size constraints Darrell mentioned. Metro's RLIS data could be a good 
source; maybe streets, public transit, and (very subtle) building 
footprints as a base with locations of interest clearly marked. I doubt 
all the restaurants / food carts will fit (certainly not with labels) 
but perhaps they could be symbolized. I'll give it a shot and send out 
something in the next few days.
