Roadmap
Now: the MVP
A static site built from validated data files. A master globe with a time slider and five lenses, six vault pages, record pages, four hero chains, two journeys, reconstructed globes at five time steps, one depth profile, simple filtering and the trust pages you are reading.
Phase I-a: a database and a curator console
The same data files import into a database unchanged. Curators get a console to add and review records without editing spreadsheets. The validation rules become database constraints and an API.
Phase I-b: search, more sites, local paleogeography
A search engine replaces the in-memory filter. More Edaphic sites join the pinewood. Paleogeographic reconstruction moves to a local pipeline.
Phase II: accounts, community and sensors
Community verification with accounts, community-only sensitivity, a 3D engine for true subsurface volumes, and live sensor feeds in the Live band of the timeline.
