Development Challenges
#1
Develop a scaleable open data standard for material informations that can be used to profile each unique material product available to use in the making of other products. Profiles contain data drawn from various sources.
#2
Develop an open, scaleable database to house and index material profiles.
#3
Develop the Matalog platform to allow designers, makers, material libraries and others to create, read, search and organise material profiles.
#4
Develop other tools and means of integration that a) link material profiles to stories of material use and b) connect other datasets to enhance the specificity of search queries, such as location and time based data.
