For more than a year there’s been no posts to Webmap blog from our team and there will be no one. We’ve been moved into new location at BLOG.REGIO.EE/APPS. It is our new home now wherein you can find a track list of GIS applications made by our team (access to some of them can be limited).
Welcome!

Flash player for the iPhone?
Adobe is actively developing a Flash player for the iPhone— now all they're waiting for is the OK from Apple.
Apple may have many reasons for not allowing Flash onto the iPhone, but if anyone has a good shot at getting their technology into the device, it would be Adobe.

Interactive tourism-map (KOV)
There is new map on our products line. Interactive tourism-map (oftentimes called KOV inside Regio) is a tool for local municipalities, tourism portals etc to promote POI-s, hiking-routes, nature parks etc on map. It has features like route calculation, intelligent address-search, multible map views, emailing and printing map.
Even more noteworthy are its administration possibilities: Administrator can customize whole map interface design, its measures, and behaviour of objects, depth of zoom levels etc. Of course, has total control over object (also upload pictures to POI-s), layer and groups management.
Try our public demo account:

Outdoors touch-screen webmap
An interactive touch-screen webmap that is placed outdoors and connects to internet wirelessly, but not an iPhone.
Põlvamaa talurahvamuuseum (an open air museum reminding how peasants lived in old times) gets an infokiosk with Regio's webmap. The map based on our KOV project will serve useful information about places to visit around the museum to tourists visiting museums info-center.
Info-kiosk hardware was provided by ERD Estonia OÜ

Google Earth Plug-in Puts Google Earth in Your Browser
Windows only: The freeware Google Earth plug-in integrates Google Earth with your web browser, embedding the 3-D glory of Earth in Firefox or Internet Explorer. The results, which you can see in the video above, are impressive. There isn't a ton of Google Earth plug-in integration on the web yet, but check out the samples to understand the possibilities, like switching between Google Maps and Earth on-the-fly. The Google Earth plug-in is Windows only, supports Firefox and Internet Explorer.

Wikipedia Added to Google Maps
In what is proving to be another busy day for Google, Wikipedia articles have been added to Google Maps. The new Wikipedia tags can be turned on via a 'More' button that has been added to the top right hand corner of the map.
When the Wikipedia tick box is selected small 'W' tags appear on the map where Wikipedia articles are available. Clicking on the 'W' tag will open an information window containing the Wikipedia article.
Panoramio photos can also be turned on via the same 'More' button. The photos option however feels a little superfluous considering Panoramio photos were added last week and can also be turned on in the left-hand panel. Intriguingly the photos turned on by the 'More' button contain a Panoramio logo whilst the ones accessed by the left-hand side panel don't, even though both sets of photos are served by Panoramio.
