It would be great to make a demo of time slider with appearing / disappearing elements on the map based on their time period. Maybe going back in time with the slider where individual elements disppear?

It can be based on the prototype @klokantech team made:

timeslider

See:
http://labs.klokantech.com/timechange/#15.35/51.5112/-0.0955/4.4/60

A map application using this code should give credit to Klokan Technologies GmbH, please.

It could be turned into web visualisation of 4D data based on the interpretation of the unique world-wide GIS layer with start and end years of the features.

(The demo above uses the physical height of the buildings instead of years - as we miss the time period information in the OSM data right now)

It is all powered our open-source project OpenMapTiles.org and OpenStreetMap data and vector tiles we produce - but we can process easily process your own existing geodata from PostGIS database and make similar interactive visualisation for your project - and improve the design, add animations and make it really cool and interactive.

It can also run on a mobile phone - and can be turned to native mobile application - with native mapping SDKs for Android and iOS (see our OpenMapTiles or GeoEditor mobile apps).

If anybody is really interested to bring this much further on larger data - Klokan Technologies GmbH can help with that.

@idastorm could you please try to adopt this code into the roman-empire index.html in this repository?
