"I am a black, I swear by all the people "

a fan of Google Earth has created a model that shows a 3D simulation of the stage and adds to the Inauguration of the flags on Capitol Hill, the U.S. House.

Not only that, but zooming Obama is seen in the act of swearing.

To see yourself in this 3D simulation, click here (7 Mbytes) to download the model in Google Earth.

GeoCommons Contest by BOTH

"GeoCommons mashup is a formidable set up by FortiusOne , which has two main objectives. The first is to make available to users - with knowledge too little or nothing of GIS and cartography - a map building tool simple and effective. The second is to create a large repository of geographic data generated by users themselves and freely usable Creative Commons licensed .

GC_eventi_sismici

But what makes it much easier to do GC? Certainly this is not a GIS environment itself, with which you can create complex maps and articulate, with the option of using raster layer and an advanced styiling those vectors. The purpose of GeoCommons is in fact to "make analysis using visual maps, allowing users without technical knowledge to view multiple datasets, reach conclusions, make decisions and solve problems without resorting to GIS .

GC_point_style With Maker! - the builder of the GC map - you can, after registering, is starting to make maps from data repositories on the GC - provided by others - that their import it into your account as shapefile as spreadsheet CSV or KML . Will be a good idea to tag the data with terms that describe the content and geographic area, so as to make them easily detectable by other users. The data loaded will essere rigorosamente in WGS84 , poichè GC non supporta la riproiezione al volo. Finder! è invece semplicemente il motore di ricerca del data repository di GC.

Come detto, GeoCommons non è un GIS ma fa bene il suo lavoro. "
