Mapping and Geo Tools Session

Here are some notes from this morning’s session at the NITLE Summit conference in San Francisco. The topic is web based mapping and geographic tools.

News flash from this session: Google Earth is about to put out infra-red images of the US.

What is “Webmapping” ? The progression from static maps to animated, real time, interactive, collaborative maps and the virtual globe.
