Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Comparison of Mobile GIS applications
All, Just resurrecting this thread. It's been 6 months. I've done a couple of little projects with the N900 which are detailed here: http://pwultra5.ci.stpaul.mn.us/OPERA/ Question to Chris S., do you have any other insights into the directions that the N900 device (or others like it) might be taking in the future (that you can mention? :c) I'm setting up some netbooks next for the two projects listed above, using essentially the same software stack as used for the N900, which it is somewhat amazing when you think about it. I would still like to revisit the Mobile controls issues for OpenLayers and GeoMoose at some point, but focusing on flexibility with software stack at the moment.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Comparison of Mobile GIS applications
Chris, Thanks for the info. I kinda figured the Meego thing was stalling on my own. A couple of manufacturers I've seen so far, but no big numbers yet. I did send in some notes for the Mobile sprint a couple of weeks ago., never heard any comments though, so don't know where they went. I think my real question for the long term, is do I stick with Linux and bend it to my will :c) , or go Andriod and/or Mac OS. bobb Christopher Schmidt crschm...@crschmidt.net wrote: On Mon, Feb 14, 2011 at 08:56:14AM -0600, Bob Basques wrote: All, Just resurrecting this thread.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Comparison of Mobile GIS applications
Hello Miguel, I have done some mobile GIS applications on Windows Mobile platform based on SQLite and SpatiaLite. I'm interested to share my experience and contribute my findings in your compilation for your coming presentation such as GIS feature list and performance. At the moment I have built a set of DLLs called libMobileGIS to be used on Windows Mobile device. This set of DLLs was mentioned sometime ago in the following Google discussion group [1] and the binary can be downloaded at [2]. I need sometime to tidy up before publishing the modified/edited sources with Microsoft VS solution and projects. [1] http://groups.google.com/group/spatialite-users/browse_thread/thread/fdc0dd434b8d5248# [2] http://myweb.polyu.edu.hk/~lsykshea/public/spatialite-related/ Regards, Geoffrey ---BeginMessage--- Miguel, I'm excited to hear your presentation was selected. I think there is a lot of interest in mobile GIS and seeing an overview of technologies will be of great interest to the general community, so I expect you will have a large audience to present to. I saw an interesting presentation from Geoffrey Shea and Professor Jiannong Cao at the FIG conference [1]. They have built a mobile application based upon open source on a Windows Mobile. I understand they have already, or are going to publish their source code as an Open Source project. Geoffrey, Professor Cao, I wonder whether you would be interested in joining Miguel's comparison of GIS Mobile applications? Also, could you please point us to the location of the code for your project. Is it on Google Code or similar?

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Comparison of Mobile GIS applications
Hello Bob! I started out using moblin as my en route OS of choice. On my asus 1005HA eee pc, it turned out to be the fastest, easiest to use (even on bumpy rides) and flexible enough. I managed to connect moblin via bluetooth to my gps and to my mobile phone. I use my mobile phone as 3G modem. Then I started using it for openstreetmap work by getting osm2go up. My goal is to get meego up to the same task: an excelent mobile solution for communication and (lightweight) geodata collection. Besides that I am waiting for the nokia device that will follow up on the N900, rumours has it will be called the N9, but those rumours haven't been confirmed by nokia. Why meego and not android? Because I am always looking at alternative products that will prevent single parties to become dominant. This has nothing to do with reason, it is purely out of ideology ;-) I am now running the 1.0 release and believe it or not, it is a small step down from moblin 2.1. Although it boots faster, the interface looks like a candystore and not all components have a synced look and feel. Chromium for instance is not integrated in the panels as much as the moblin browser was, and some apps suddenly have gray window decoration while others have black. With moblin I would have people ooh and aah when I did a business presentation with it, meego with its OS for kids look has to stay in the box a little while longer. For me meego == choice. I don't intend my eee pc it to be a desktop replacer, I cannot imagine myself programming on 1024x600 resolution. But it is my companion on the road and since I travel by train a lot, the best companion I had so far with almost 8h of battery power. And even for business meetings, I don't need to bring a heavy 15 or more anymore.

can compare the current versions of the two leading web map servers. I think making the evaluation yourself not only viewing the scores, could be profitable not only for us - to know you opinion and improve the method, but for you as well - to maybe find missing elements in your software project or gaps in its documentation.

Thank you very much for the interest. 1)Here is the scenario: I work with enviromental services. I use GRASS+QGIS on windows. Small amount of data. Over high resolution sat images I draw vectors for some planning, the vectors have a lot of atributes. Those vectors have dayli updates. 2)What I want: Make my work easily avaliable for my teanmates over the internet, so they can visualise and query the vectors for the atributes. I look for a server that is easy to configure and that have some tools like zoom, pan and query. And the server must show always the latest updates made in the vectors (should I put the vectors in postgis?). Thanks again. Pablo. _ Quer compartilhar fotos com seus amigos?

[OSGeo-Discuss] Comparison
Hello, I am very new to geoservers and am currently studying GIS info system. I am wondering whether you could help me getting an overview and comparison of some of the Servers such as MapServer, GeoServer and Deegree. I've gone through the documentation of these Servers and the presentation of FOSS4G conferences. What I've got is that these servers are similar to each other, regarding the functionality and features. (I am probably wrong about this). And I still don't help a clear picture of these projects. For example, what's the strength and weakness of each server in some particular scenario? Or why would people choose MapServer over GeoServer? I guess I could never answer these questions without ever using them, right? Could anyone of you give me some help or tips on this? Thank you very much.

Hi Jovi, For a start you can take a look at the evaluation results of CASCADOSS project - you will find there also other types of FOSS4G software too. http://www.cascadoss.eu/en/index.php?option=com_contenttask=viewid=16Itemid=16 The evaluation is a bit out of date - valid for early 2008, but the evaluation method itself may provide the clues how to look at and compare FOSS4G software projects.

Hi Andrea, None of the reports were submitted to any of the communities. We aimed at completely independent evaluations and the method itself was designed to enable users to perform their own evaluation. We cannot expect users to contact communities each time an evaluaiton is performed.
