What’s available
What’s significant
What’s interesting
What’s the scale
What’s feasible
Where are the anchor points
What does it afford?:what are the obvious hooks to other datasets, or

“...Radio, meaning part of the electromagnetic
spectrum is fundamental to electronics… All
electronic products are hybrids of radiation and

around the world, radio space is actual and

part of it.”
