The Observatory

A public, interactive living map of the organizations, projects, events, and initiatives across three connected ecosystems:

• BC + AI
• ED + AI
• Futureproof

How it works

The map hydrates from open seed data in /data, then (in production) from Neon Postgres synced nightly from Notion Observatory Entities & Relationships — only rows with Status = Public. People and private CRM fields never sync. The seed currently maps 44 entities and 72 relationships.

Contribute

Editors promote Draft → Public in Notion (see curation playbook). Code and seed corrections are welcome via pull request — see CONTRIBUTING.

Open data

The code is MIT licensed; the public dataset is CC BY 4.0. Download the live graph as JSON from /api/v1/graph.

Embed this map

Drop the live graph into your site (allowed on bc-ai.ca and futureproof.website). Optional query params: node, initiative.
