:. mapmorph is dedicated to an ‘open‘ and ‘free‘ approach towards geodatamanagement / spatial data infrastructures. it shows how web2.0-technologies facilitate webgis-development in a time- & cost-efficient manner.

„Web 2.0 is the business revolution in the computer industry caused by the move to the Internet as a platform, and an attempt to understand the rules for success on | that new platform.“

– Tim O’Reilly

:. the main geodata used is community-generated data by OpenStreetMap.

:. in addition mapmorph is concerned about 1. knowledge creation, management & perception in globalized, post-modern societies and 2. risks & problems that evolve through the interactions between man and nature; in a transdisciplinary and sustainable way.

„The realm of the born – all that is natural- and the realm of the made – all that is humanly constructed – are becoming one. Machines are becoming biological and the biological is becoming engineered.“

– Kevin Kelly
