I’m happy to report that the Bing Maps team shipped the final Bing Maps Silverlight Control with their Wave 14 update. Finally, no more screwing around with JavaScript but developing in in nice, good ol’ VB.NET or C# :-) Btw, we updated Bing Maps as well which is especially sweet as the responsiveness...

As you might know I wrote an article about Geocoding or How to transform a list of addresses into Latitude/Longitude values and display them on a map (including source code) a couple of month ago. The source code includes an Access database which holds the data to be converted. This database is later...

Well, it took me a while but I finally implemented some neat features for www.whereisdaniel.net :-) (@ least in my opinion). I intended www.whereisdaniel.net to be more flexible and ended up implementing query parameters to adjust the appearance of the page. At present the following query parameters...

Woooah!! This is freaking sweet! Check out the latest version of the Virtual Earth API we released today. It seems, Virtual Earth is going to be the next first-person shooter ;-) The trees in the picture below are real 3D models. Unfortunately we screwed up again! They don’t move in the wind ;...

Someone has a list of companies/stores/medics/pharmacies/clubs/museums/”u name it” with the address consisting of the street, zip code and the city, wants to display those items...

Volta , a Live Labs technology preview launched last week, includes bindings for Virtual Earth. The VoltaVirtualEarth library allows developers using Volta to build Virtual Earth applications for the browser, in managed code. This translates into static type checking, IntelliSense, integrated debugging...

Ok, dass ich soetwas mal schreiben würde hätte ich nicht gedacht! Seit ich meinen neuen GPS Empfänger ( DG-100 GPS Data Logger ) habe, der auch im Flugzeug funktioniert, wollte ich schon immer wissen, wie ein Landeanflug mit Warteschleife aussieht :-) Heute war es dann soweit und hier ist das Ergebnis...

Arrrgs… Seit ein paar Tagen habe ich meine Bilder auf flickr in www.woistdaniel.de integriert und komme nicht dazu, darüber zu schreiben. Naja, genug gejammert :-) Bin noch nicht wirklich zufrieden (muss noch deutlich hübscher werden) aber es soll ja auch Raum für eine v0.3 geben ;-) In diesem Sinne...

Die Idee für http://www.woistdaniel.de/ kam mir als ich auf der STC 2007 einen Vortrag über MashUps (MashUps sind Webanwendungen die Inhalte verschiedenster Quellen auf einer Webseite anzeigen.) halten sollte. Für meinen Vortrag erstellte ich eine Webanwendung die (1) meine Bewegungsabläufe in einem...
