I actually just finished rebuilding the Microsoft Virtual Earth control in Flex 2. ( http://local.live.com )

Unfortunately I did it under NDA so I can’t let you use it.

If you want to see it – it will be viewable with the launch of the new Pikeo application on Nov 7th. ( www.pikeo.com )

It’s not quite perfect yet but I only started building it 6 weeks ago. I will try to polish it some more before the launch.

 

I will talk to the company and see if they are willing to let me open source the component.

Don’t get your hopes up though.

 

Also they have a contract with Microsoft that makes it legal for them to use it.

You would most likely have to do the same.

 

 

A better option would probably be to lobby Yahoo to hire me as a remote developer to help upgrade their current flex 1.5 maps to flex 2. J

 

We chose Microsoft for a provider because they had better satellite coverage of most of the world then either Yahoo or Google.

Subject: [flexcoders] Flex 2 and maps

 

I have been struggling to find a "clean" way to integrate mapping into
a flex 2 app. I know you can use the legacy Yahoo Maps Api (Flex
1.5 / AS2) and via a LocalConnection communicate with it, but this is
a big hack. Does anyone know of a mapping component that supports
Flex 2 / AS3?

Thanks,

Brian
