EGNOS has prepared some SDKs development kits to work with its signal. Interesting location add-on, and made in Europe!
Nice reading on C3 technology that would be acquired by Apple check link here
This is the improved version (with links) of my presentation on GEO and Mobile made at this years GISoTOPOlis conference. More than technology, it portrays the different uses of GEO on a mobile device (ipad, phone,...)
On 13 and 14th of October 2010 there is the conference/trade fair GISoTOPOlis, centered around Geo applications. I will be talkig about geo and re-use of public data, and as anounced earlier here on the mobile geo application side; stay tuned for my presa on this blog.
Interesting background video about geo in general
Interesting podcast. in the current mobile smartphone hype of location as a 'feature', it is interesting to see that this 'feature' is not so evident as such.
Foursquare and Gowalla have a new rival on the mobile apps field of location: Facebook launches application for geo-localisation called check in.
With its “Places” feature, users can broadcast their location to the web, track their friends’ movements and see who else has checked in to a specific location. The optional service, available initially in the US, will also allow users to tag their friends in posts, flagging their whereabouts as well.
Alsways an interesting exercise make forecasts, although some trends go often slower than predicted, and other disruptive factors come into place. Let's look at this list of predictions from Geoloco summit:
Prediction 1. Geo-data will be free, with OpenStreet Map and other crowd-driven open-source data eclipsing commercial vendors: panelists of the summit did not think this prediction would be true due to quality issues.
2. Location-awareness will be integral to any mobile app: palists agree.
3. More than half of all mobile advertising in 2014 will be location-based: mixed review from panelists
. Virtually all user-generated content will be geo-tagged: probably yes
5. Proximity will become a critical filter for content: probably yes, anyay a filtering of relevant information is needed.
Prediction 6. Mobile devices scanning QR and bar codes will revolutionize how consumers access information: no clear answer
7. LBS will be integrated with social networks: already done, this is the area where legislation will be put up, because stuff like facial recognition will cause deviations.
Complete article from GEO-loco 2010
Two years ago I started to analyse the different new trends when geographic maps and participatory web were converging.
A first presentatin was made in 2008, with elements mentionned like crowdsourcing for gathering data, and location based information put on screens.
On 13th of October 2010 I will be making a new presentation at Gisotopolis event in Brussels and here I am reaching out to you: what are great cases that you have seen in this GEO 2.0 field? What has emerged as a new trend? Let me know, and I 'll include them in a new anlysis, that of course will be shared back to you. Feedback to tanguy@delestre.org or in remarks below
