Map Sharing

As a validated user, I want to be able to draw and share custom maps.

Example: Identifying old photos
I'm using Drupal to host historic photographs. Often the location of the photo isn't clear, so the discussion in the comments will say things like "Was the photographer standing at A, B or C?", "No, I think the line of site is like this".
Some users will use photoshop to mark up screen captures of Google Maps to explain what they're talking about. A simple way to insert a map and add simple annotation into text will be a lot easier.

  • Save the legend state with hooks every time a node form is saved/altered - the state was dumped into a plain text field on the node hidden from the node author and public (to then be loaded upon node display so that the map loads with the active layers visible when the node was saved.)

    Mapping improvements

    I'm opening this discussion for brainstorming Mapping improvements.

    I think many of the ideas discussed here may be worked later on sprints. @dasjo also came with the idea of doing a sprint during DrupalCon, which would be VERY interesting!

    My plan is to use GeoJSON as the main layer type on Mapping, whenever it's possible. This approach will allow better integration with Views and later using BBOX strategy.

    I've done some successful tests with GeoJSON on Mapping Leaflet sandbox.

    I have some new ideas for Views integration. By "new" I mean some ideas that are not currently being used in other mapping modules. Some of them are:

    Allow any View based on fields to output GeoJSON as a JS
