This ought to be a separate application from the main Cartagen framework… though eventually perhaps integrated? Discuss.

Required steps:

• Ability to upload an image
• Image may need to be stored at various sizes (attachment-fu; weardrobe code example)
• Display of an image at approx 240 x 180px with control points at corners (zoomable)
• implement projective texturing for that image
• user clicks ‘save’ button and it’s saved as a raster image (base64)
• warped coordinates are stored
• User clicks ‘complete’ upon finishing the map
• Image Magick? performs the distortions at full resolution ImageMagick docs
• image is offered as WMS? or whatever
• cartagen can import/display the tileset for tracing
