The demos here at Google I/O today made me seriously think about installing Windows on my Mac for the very first time. The reason: Google Earth API. Putting Google Earth into your browser just like Google Maps, with full hardware acceleration. Only on Windows (FF2+, IE6/7) for now, Mac and Linux are announced to be […]
This year’s GI-days conference (16-17 June), held in Muenster, Germany, is focusing on Interoperability and spatial processing in GI applications. The conference program has just been released and it seems, that Processing Services are one of the major topics. Two separate sessions are held on WPS. Additionally there will be workshops on Wednesday, which also […]
Day 2 was pretty short, because the keynote had to be cancelled because the speaker was sick. The afternoon and evening was reserved for winery tour and conference dinner, so there were only two sessions.

The conference started with a little unofficial ice […]

Foss4g is the former MapServer User Conference and turned […]
