Microsoft Virtual Earth Offered with ArcGIS Online Services30/07/2008 |
| Microsoft (WA, USA) and ESRI (CA, USA) have announced that ESRI ArcGIS users will have access to the robust mapping and imagery content provided by the Microsoft Virtual Earth platform inside ArcGIS Desktop and ArcGIS Server. With Virtual Earth seamlessly integrated into ArcGIS 9.3 Desktop, ArcGIS users are now able to add base maps, which feature rich aerial and hybrid views, to perform data creation, editing, analysis, authoring, and map publishing. |
|
Together, Virtual Earth and ArcGIS Online services will enable customers to access resources that add depth to their projects, and will include high-resolution street maps, imagery, and hybrid maps. Street map coverage is available for more than 60 countries and regions including North America, Europe, South America, the Asia Pacific region, and Northern Africa. Aerial and satellite imagery includes worldwide coverage, but varies by region.
Land planning, site selection, crime analysis, road network analysis, and delivery network management are just few examples of how ArcGIS desktop users can leverage ArcGIS Online Virtual Earth map services. ArcGIS Server users will be able to connect to ArcGIS Online Virtual Earth Map Services at a later date, through a service pack. http://resources.esri.com/arcgisonlineservices

3D Scanning of Historic Sugar Factories |

The Alliance for Integrated Spatial Technologies at the University of South Florida, USA, recently worked with the Florida Park Service on a project to document the remains of several historic sugar-mill sites in the State Parks to create as-builts to be used in preservation and conservation of these resources. The FARO LS 880, along with GPS and total station georeferencing and colour imaging, was used on these projects.
