Welcome
to another edition
of the MP2Kmag
Update. Since the last issue, quite a lot has happened. The MapPoint
Business Unit was renamed to the Microsoft Virtual Earth Business Unit
and just yesterday the team launched a new web site at http://www.microsoft.com/virtualearth.
Microsoft is reportedly in the process of acquiring Vexcel, a remote
sensing
company that supplies cameras, software, and services. Windows Live
Local has started to show a preview of "Street-side" photos. MWS 4.1
was released, and more.
MP2K Magazine is your source for independent news and information about
MapPoint technologies and products and is home to the popular web forum
for MapPoint users and developers. In this issue we
feature new
articles from Wilfried Mestdagh and Richard Marsden. We also have an
interview with Fresh Logic Studios regarding their Atlas application.
There are several screenshots from the latest Global Gaming Almanac
which produces a MapPoint .ptm file to accompany the report. We also
have a photo of Marvin Hlavac's new Maltese puppy with the Large
MapPoint mug.
There are a LOT of news items and links, you could spend some hours
reading all the articles to catch up with things. I would especially
encourage you to check out the Virtual
Earth news section.

MP2Kmag Talks with Fresh Logic
Studios
A few weeks ago we conducted an e-mail interview with the folks at
Fresh Logic Studios. We talk about their Atlas application and plans
for future development.
What is the
purpose of your Atlas application?
When we set out to develop Atlas, our goal was to create a web-based
mapping platform that we could easily extend to encorporate a wide
variety of geospatial data.
There's lots of people doing similar things. The buzzword out there
right now for this Web 2.0 phenomenon is the term "mashup". The problem
we've found with most mashups is that they're too limited in scope.
Someone sets out to integrate Google Maps with Flickr, and that's
great, but it's implemented with a weak architecture underneath. All
that application will ever be capable of is tying together Google Maps
and Flickr. Nothing else.
We're trying to build a platform where we can tie together a few
geospatial pieces that we're currently interested in into one
integrated experience and still leave room for other things that are
out there and some that aren't even available yet. We guess you could
say we're trying to build the "ultimate mashup".
What
features does it have and how does it compare to Windows Live Local?
Think of Atlas as Windows Local Live with a user interface overhaul
plus some added goodies.
Atlas has all the main features of Windows Local Live. Local search,
driving directions, and the scratchpad are all in there. Obviously we
have the fluid AJAX map that allows you to pan and zoom with the road,
aerial, hybrid, and bird's eye imagery. Our Bird's Eye user interface
isn't quite as nice as the Windows Local Live interface. We have some
work to do in that area.
Sign up for a free account and gain access to the added features that
allow you to search and plot lowest gas prices, latest traffic
conditions, movies and showtimes, and blogs in your area. We'll send
you email when we release new features and encourage feedback as to
what we should tackle next.

Global Gaming
Almanac Screenshots
Casino City Press
submitted these maps developed using MapPoint. Andrea Mullaney writes,
"I have attached the ptm file from our Global Gaming Almanac CD, which
displays more than 3,500 world gaming properties - including casinos,
card rooms, racinos, horse tracks, dog tracks, casino cruises and
cruise ships (and even Jai-alai frontons) using color-coded icons to
designate different property types and ownership (Indian gaming vs.
non-Indian gaming in the U.S. and Canada, for instance). The balloon
pop-ups will give viewers access to property profile data.
"This map is included on Casino City's Global Gaming Almanac CD, which
is sold to gaming industry analysts, investment banks, casino
executives, gaming associations and commissions, and gaming business
professionals both in the U.S. and abroad."

If you have a MapPoint presentation, neat programming technique, or
would simply like to share the ways in which you are using MapPoint
technology or any other ideas, contact us to discuss how we can turn
your knowledge into
an article and share your experience with the rest of the MapPoint
community of users and developers.
Writers often plug their consulting service or other business interest
through their bio which appears at the bottom of the article. Others do
it for the Large MapPoint Mug (see right!). Whatever the
reason, it is
rewarding to share and take credit for the knowledge you share with the
rest of the community.
Thanks to Marvin

Articles
Snap to a Road
Wilfried
Mestdagh's article shows how to take a lat/lon and find the nearest
road relative to that point. The technique, written entirely in Delphi,
employs reverse geocoding and determines the lat/lon using a CalcXY
routine.
"This article will show how to snap a position to a road. Many times a
GPS receiver's calculated position is not as accurate as we should like
it to be, and when you project the position in MapPoint by means of a
pushpin the vehicle is not on the road.
Also a vehicle might be not on any (digitized) road at all, for example
it can be on a field or a parking lot. In that case you don't want to
snap it to a road but you maybe want information like: 'The vehicle is
20 meters south-east from streetname, streetnumber'. And this is exacly
what the code given in this article will produce."

Using Python to Control MapPoint, Part 1
First of two articles by Richard Marsden on scripting MapPoint using
Python. This article demonstrates how to get started with PythonWin and
MapPoint.
"Python is an easy to use but powerful scripting language. Python is
ideal for processing data and text. This sounds a bit like Perl, but
unlike Perl, I find Python much easier to read and maintain. A wide
range of available extensions make Python an ideal tool for scripting
MapPoint. Part 1 of this series shows you the basics of controlling
MapPoint with Python. Part 2 will use some basic Python text processing
to read a file of summary US Census data and plot the filtered results
in MapPoint.
These examples use Python 2.4. This can be downloaded from
http://www.python.org. I have installed it into the
installer’s
suggested directory of c:\Python24. If you use a different directory,
you will need to modify the following instructions accordingly."

Name
From MapPoint B2B - "The
Microsoft MapPoint Business Unit has officially changed it's name to
the Microsoft Virtual Earth Business Unit. We'll maintain the MapPoint
branding for our products, but moving forward our online platform will
be called Virtual Earth, as well as, our BU."
Where
the Heck Are We?
From
Redmondmag.com - "Microsoft's
MapPoint is a solid business-savvy mapping tool, but it needs more
frequent updates... Easy to customize, MapPoint offers stellar mapping
and labeling tools, unparalleled zoom and an easy-to-navigate interface
that simplifies finding places and working with maps. In many cases,
however, the maps it generates are anywhere from three to seven years
out of date."
Pushpin
Tool - Wish List Wanted for Next Version
An
"updated version of
Pushpin Tool in the planning stages... the Pushpin Tool has not been
upgraded in a few years but there are a few new items I plan on adding
and a few minor fixes to be made. I would like to hear from you what
you think could be included in Pushpin Tool to make it better or fix
something that’s already in it."
TourSolver added to Mapping-Tools.com
Product Line-up
"TourSolver
is a powerful
route planning and optimization tool. TourSolver is capable of
optimizing hundreds of customers amongst multiple routes. A wide
variety of constraints can be applied, including times, vehicle
