Map-based tools for Māori communities
summary
A prototype web app maps and timelines Māori place-based knowledge into planning by letting communities upload raster and vector layers, attach media-rich story-mapped cultural narratives, and draw geographies tied to timeline events. Tech stack uses Vue.js client, OpenLayers, GeoServer APIs, Django backend, PostgreSQL/PostGIS and Docker. A governance model implements a kaitiaki validation workflow so storytellers submit drafts for kinship-group approval. Two village case studies drive requirements; community user testing is scheduled for early December.
