Looking to the future of Intergraph – GeoMedia 6.0 Product Suite

Published on July 28, 2005 by in general, GIS_Software

It is true that ESRI doesn’t have much competition at this point from the other large GIS companies (Intergraph and MapInfo). I am hoping that GeoMedia 6.0 Product Suite will kick their interface up to the level that their data integration has been at for a while.

Published on July 28, 2005 by in General, general

We now show that the podcast has been downloaded at least 30 times by someone other than me. For those of you coming to download AVSP for the first time or checking out the site after you have listened to the podcast, I encourage you to send us an email at podcast@veryspatial.com to let us know what you think and what you would like us to cover in the future.

Even more to do with Google Earth

Published on July 26, 2005 by in general, WebMapping

OK, I am changing topics a little bit at least… moving to Google Earth vs Google Maps. I just heard this on the This Week in Tech podcast. Check out some interesting pretty pictures at Google Earth Hacks – Lots of downloads, information and hacks for Google Earth.

Release of Microsoft Virtual Earth Beta

Published on July 25, 2005 by in general, WebMapping

The beta version of Microsoft’s Virtual Earth has gone live at http://virtualearth.msn.com/

So far, it doesn’t have the bells and whistles that Google Earth can boast, and I think that the black and white imagery doesn’t match up to Google’s color imagery. It may be that Microsoft is working on some additional unique functionality, but so far, it isn’t that impressive, given what’s already out there.
