MapCruncher – Microsoft’s new prototype mashup creator

May 16th, 2006 | By | Category: general, Programming/Dev, WebMapping

I was checking out the Microsoft Research news, and I saw this press release about MapCruncher, a new prototype that helps users make mash-ups with MSN Virtual Earth of course. It is downloadable as a ZIP file, and I have downloaded it myself to play with during quiet moments at our conference. So, head over to Microsoft Research and check it out!

    Can also be used to produce custom tile sets, from images, for use with the Google Maps API:

    and so a nice companion tool for CASA’s GMap Creator and Image Cutter applications:
