Albany, OR and Linn County, OR are very proud of its new multi-participant online bike route map. Among those involved: Linn County Geographic Information Systems, Albany GIS, the Albany Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Commission and local cycling clubs.
Also cool: it’s powered by MapServer.
PenBay Media and its partner’s mapping robots are featured in an article at AutomatedBuildings.com. The article discusses the role robots can have in BIM and their value once they “know their way around.”
The short article highlights that just as we mention GPS or LPS when talking about LBS, we should mention indoor locating when talking about BIM.
The scientific publisher Springer launched AuthorMapper this past week.
The free tool visualizes research and trends on a Google Map and on a timeline. Per Springer, you can use it to:
- Easily locate reviewers, authors and experts in similar fields
- Run a variety of queries by keyword, discipline, institution, author and more
- Discover the geographic areas where specific topics are being researched
- Identify new and historic literature trends
- Link and connect seamlessly to published content
- Discover wider relationships in the scientific community
Some materials are not available as they are behind a pay wall. You can search only for open articles and embed the results of a query of a website.
Hat tip to reader Duane.
