The long-term goal is definitely to expand worldwide with UNESCO and national heritage data to build a proper geo-historical encyclopedia. EU countries tend to have great open-access heritage datasets.
Very cool. When we travel, it's often for my wife's research, which takes us to various obscure places and the most fun is finding old ancestral temples. One of the best trips was to Yaoli Village in Anhui, where the old temples were being restored. I was able to see them pre-restoration and watch the methods for reconstructing them. That was several years ago, and now it's very tourist-ified, but still beautiful.
Occasionally, cruising the back roads, we'll stumble on some old temple waiting to be saved. Nowadays, it's rare, but they're still out there.
I played around for a long time.... its fascinating. Question: if I wanted to find all sites associated with HanFeizi, could the search eventually accommodate that?
Aha, what turned up in the Flow AI results? I’m guessing it was mostly Qin dynasty or battlefield sites? The current version leans pretty heavily on basic geolocations and surface-level tags. I’m planning to enrich Flow AI with deeper historical context.
Also, how does the daily flow ai quota feel to you? Is it enough for your exploration?
Maybe I was doing it wrong, but "Hanfeizi" and "Han fei" turn up no results, so I guessed the search is currently limited to locations? I will work with it more, but have to say what a great idea and good start!
I never cease to be amazed at how industrious you are! How do find time to eat and sleep?
Aha, I’ve been working on this heritage platform for several months, really glad to finally launch it.
Sounds really great! Should be done for other places with a rich past. I am thinking of Italy where I spend part of the year.

I'm thinking of adding UGC to the app later on so people can share their own experiences and photos.
Cool. A little open source user excitement might make the thing blow up.
masterpiece
