Microsoft Debuts Behind the Maps Series

From reader Tim:

In case your scanning didn’t nab this… a great 40 minute piece on what MSFT is doing with Vexcel technology.

The site explains this is the first in a series in a post from Mark Brown:

Welcome to the inaugural episode of a new video series called, “Behind The Maps”. In this series we’ll explore all of the technology that makes up Virtual Earth and meet the scientists and engineers who bring Virtual Earth to life.

In this episode we go to Graz, Austria and meet Michael Gruber who invented the UltraCam aerial camera and Bernhard Reitinger who created our UltraMap software. We’ll spend some time getting the details on this camera and software and get an up close look at both.
