Hi,

I have to think about the time series bit and see what´s out there already. I 
doesn´t have to be too complex though. And I suspect that most locations will 
only have 2 photos...one old, one new.

thanks,


Robert

Hi Robert,

I guess my main question would be how you intended to display the historic 
time-series, and handle the geographic metadata. Otherwise it sounds like you 
want a layer/feature layer of some kind that will connect to whatever 
application you have that will render the time-series photographs. It wouldn't 
be too hard to have a link to your application launcher in some geo-metadata...
just some thoughts...
