Maps: A Step Towards a WorldWide Atlas?
March 12,
2005
/Mike
Liebhold
There's a very interesting,
modestly technical explanation on engadget.com on how to make
your own annotated iq option multimedia Google maps .
While creating your own google maps is a very cool new hack, It will be
interesting to see how Keyhole and Google geonotes, gpstracks, and
locative media, can be -combined- and -shared- worldwide; and how we'll
share -all- attributes geodata layers and media, for any given place:
art, media, cultural, social, historical, infrastructure, physical,etc.
So far, with a few major obvious exceptions, a lot of geoweb
experimentation still seems to be on discrete, non-interoperable, maps,
atlases, location services, and locative media experiences - even where
exercising new semantic web techniques using xml/gml/wfs and xml/rdf/,
xml/svg. etc.
I am very encouraged by Sam
Ruby's approach to bridging Soap and raw xml over http: This
gives me some hope for a future of blended hypermedia and geodata,
Since most of our hardcore mainstream GIS brothers and sisters seem to
be buying into soap/uddi web services in a big way, deploying ESRI and
Microsoft '.net' Mappoint web services
The legacy worldwide web is mostly encyclopedic, let's hope the new
semantic geospatial web can, ideally become a worldwide altas of
interoperable media and layers and wiki atlas of contextual media.

WebPark, a European Union
sponsored consortium project, is a research plan and
technological implementation program to develop personalized
value-added Location Based Services (LBS)
for recreation in coastal, rural and mountainous areas. ...involving
the integration of expertise in GIS and multimedia
content, device-sensitive delivery and adaptive terrain and landscape
intelligence, Geographically relevant location-based information
services delivered directly to users in protected recreation areas via
the mobile Internet. The Swiss National Parkis be the
first testbed. The link to an interactive map
was broken when I last checked.
Project Investigator David Mountain,
of the City University of London, has a very interesting .ppt
here describing project investigations of GKD - geographic
knowledge discovery - for location based services.

Please forgive the long silence due to personal
projects, and startup in new roles as
visiting researcher at Intel Labs,
and now also as an affiliate
researcher with the Institute for the
Future.

Joshua Schacter's new community link repository. For professional
GIS, GPS and LBS

Collaborative Mapping at

Here are excerpt's
from Jo Walsh's post to the geowankers
list summarizing
the geo pyrotechnics of the Collaborative Mapping
Workshop at
the Oreilly Emerging
Technology conference in San Diego:
" We
started on the monday evening with a 'show-n-tell' type session
... including the wireless geolocation /
annotation group at UC San Diego who are working on a
successor-to-geonotes type project - Active Campus
, the NYU guys with their funky http://dodgeball.com/ ,
and Damian from http://carbot.org,
whose
in-car
system is waiting for the air around it to fill with foaf-filtered geoannotations.
good dreams...
We
had short "here's who and where we are" presentations from the ... hackers who'd
precooked software for the workshop [ using
a common 'Locative Packets]

made http://geoserver.sf.net , Jon Peterson from
the IETF's GEOPRIV and access to
location and presence info, and the
inimitable Sonny Parafina.from askthespider.
Shouts to Mike Liebhold, http://www.starhill.us
who did much rabble-rousing in advance but was
unable to attend [ due to other
commitments] ...
...
Everyone who'd iq option login prepared to send 'locative packets'
to the RDF aggregator allowing us to share annotations tried to get it
working. Most interesting was the sense of mutual buy-in from RDF and
W*S/GML people, who have interesting needs for an extensible
metadata format to describe things which have spatial properties but
aren't really spatial features in the trad GIS sense. Raj in
particularn rose to the hacking challenge and produced Locative_Packets_To_GML_Servlet
We
staged a 'annotating psychoderive' on the tuesday and got a few people
making GPS traces of their picture-taking routes. ...
...
and had much heated
discussion of user-owned data, https://brainytrading.net.in closed APIs on mobile devices etc. Rich
Gibson
took pretty assiduous
notes of 'current and future concerns' for open
geodata and collaborative annotation...
