Hello Renee

Although google earth does not necessarily = geoweb, in my conversations a while back at a NSGIC event [http://www.nsgic.org/ ] I heard many Chief Geographers from US states informally share examples of using Google Earth as the preferred app for public presentations and briefings for state executives and legislators., regardless of the GIS they used for day to day mapping ( usually Arcinfo ). And I heard many of them say that if they didn't use Google Earth they'd be upstaged by some citizems' group showing up at planning meetings with prettier presentations.

Hi Everyone,

I, at McGill U, and some guys at UCL and Nottingham are trying to conduct research into why and how governments (municipal, national, agencies, public private partnerships) are developing geoweb applications. But we need some best practices cases. So can you point us to exemplary government users/developers of geolocational apps, be it on Google Earth, Flickr, iPhone, Twitter, Maker!, OSM, OpenLayers, etc.?

I myself am more interested in the subnational so if you know of a city or an agency (e..g, a state Forest Service) is developing these apps, that'd be cool.

I'd be more than happy to share results, interview instruments, etc.

thanks,
Renee
