Google Bridge

For LBS demos we often need clobal content, more and more often "for tomorrow" and sometimes for very exotic and unexpected regions. It's not possible to integrate Navteq, Leaddog or TeleAtlas data into our GIS Engine with such short notice thus we created Google Maps support into MapCat. Google Bridge covers basic GIS functionalities (navigation, search, routing) and enables to use MapCat search, routing and light digitizing components in combination with GM (show adresses, POI's, routing results, geofences on top of the maps etc).

- WMS demo
- GC Admin demo

Google Bridge is also useful for our webmap customers in Baltics who're willingly ready to pay for internetmap applications but not monthly fees for the maps (and for whom maps quality is not critical issue :-)

MapCat integration

There's sometimes not enough "space" within web-page for a map-component and using pop-up windows is not allowed either. One nice option for map integration in those cases is as follows:

"...we have lot's of employees working remotely in Regio. For example our team members work from Narva and Tallinn as well as from our our main office at Tartu, Riia 24..."

GISSER prototype III

We started to create prototype III for GISSER project (EAS funded technology project for animated maps). For short instructions how to use demo click here...

QVIZ prototype 2

QVIZ new prototype has been integrated to faceted search lately: narrow your search results using map as a filter or determine time-period using time-bar component:

Travel Planning wizard

During last couple of month we've had great chance to cooperate with Affecto and develop TravelPlan map-wizard for a finnish tourism portal. Application uses maps, geocoding and routing services from GeniMapper platform (Affecto's mapserver service for Finland) and is built up using MapCat Medium software.

Route animation demo

New prototype for route animation is ready, functionality is available for our customers through MapCat upgrade next moth (new version will be released soon):

Vector optimization demo

Using MapCat architecture it was sometimes tricky to quarantee quick client-server communication for vector data handling. Those times are history! New MapCat enables drawing vector data as quickly as raster handling, sometimes vector is even quicker (see the picture):

Estonian Forest Registry in web

Estonian Forest Registry is finally accessible through web. New and attractive web-site will be released soon in cooperation with Regio webmap team (us :-) and Centre of Forest Protection and Silviculture.

New GUI for tourism applications

As a result of GISSER (one of our R&D projects funded by Enterprise Estonia) new release of our tourism map-applications will be launched next week. First customer using upgraded technology and advanced GUI will be the biggest Estonian internet portal Delfi (see application under construction here).

Application is built based MapCat technology and attractive GUI for tourism-like type of applications is designed in cooperation with Webmedia design division. Long-term objective of this cooperation was to elaborate GUI traits characteristic to all our webmap applications including MapCat API.

Nutimap beta

Now you can download and test Nutimap interactive mobile map application. It has Regio detailed maps and address data, MGMaps.com application.

It supports:
- Regio most detailed Estonian maps (up to house number level)
- Search for addresses and placenames in Estonia (also up to house numbers)

Other key features:
- Track your location using GPS (via Bluetooth)
- Save your favourite locations

To be done yet:
- Search objects (POI) around some place
- Route directions
- million other extension ideas...

Routing on the fly

Damn, Google! They've done it. One fancy idea from our roadmap we called 'routing on the fly' is implemented by Google and looks quite cool, see demo...

Our demo just to illustrate the idea is here...

Thematic map for QVIZ

This is our first prototype for QVIZ - map application capable of drawing thematic maps about time-spatial distribution of digitized historical documents. Polygon color refers to amount of items (historical resources) within search result. Developers can use map as a search filter/faceted query component (specify search by map parameters: bounding box, selected ploygon etc).

FF designed by Art School

Yesterday we had opportunity to have a closer look at concepts and designs of GUI-s from Art School students for our product named Friendfinder. To be honest, presentation of ideas and implementation was something we even couldn't expect, otherwords impressive!

New prototype for friendfinder is part of R&D project with acronym GISSER (GIS Server for Animation) funded by Enterprise Estonia. Read more...
