Dave Bouwman has some thoughts on using PostgreSQL as a RDBMS for ArcSDE (or ArcGIS Server Enterprise as we should be calling it). Thus far I’ve simply come to realize that I have a lot to learn. I need to grok a lot more about Postgresql and PostGIS to start, and then add ArcSDE into the mix. While everyone is really excited about PostgreSQL support at 9.3, remember it won’t be as easy to administer as SQL Server is (at least to those who already use SQL Server). Just keep that in mind befor

Prof. Arno Scharl of the MODUL University Vienna has send me an interesting Information about a project called Knowledge Planet. Unfortunately I had only litte time to look at this project, but it deals with with Ontologies and Knowledge Bases. Ontologies and Knowlegde Bases are populare buzzwords many people in the GI industy uses for neary everything, but in my opinion less people understand how this could applied properly to build up applications. I think this is one of the few implementatio

Untrue to typical loud form in the press, deCarta quietly raised $10.5M towards yet another round of $21M financing - this one on top of about $40M raised over the years from multiple rounds. It's unbelievable that the company can continue to convince investors to spend more money when deCarta's core geospatial primitives such as geocoding, mapping, and routing have been reduced to commodities care of Google and Microsoft, and when more mobile & GPS device manufacturers now have their own

PostGIS provider for FDO update May 9th, 2008 During last weeks, a lot of fresh bits have been contributed to the PostGIS provider for FDO Open Source.

Wer Google Earth nur für einen virtuellen Atlas hält, der hat die Ausmaße des Projekts nicht richtig begriffen. Die Software ist wirklich ein Erlebnis und gehört wirklich auf jeden Rechner. Google Earth ist viel mehr als eine schicke und komfortable Abspiel-Software für Satellitenaufnahmen. Google Earth ist eine völlig neue Art von Informationsplattform - und immer mehr Menschen machen davon Gebrauch. Die Informationen werden konsequent verortet: Jeder kann Fotos, Videos oder auch Daten bestim

Finally, I created the packages of GRASS 6.3.0 and GDAL 1.5.1 for Ubuntu Hardy Heron (currently amd64 only). There were some issues regarding the Debian patching system, which was new to me. Another problem is, that the new wx-digitiser does not work yet. But you can already test the new-generation WxPython-based GRASS GUI. Packages for i386 are comming soon, but if you can’t wait, you can just get the sources (apt-get source grass) and run dpkg-source -x grass-6.3.0-0.dsc cd grass-6.3.0 dp

I’ve asked the question on Twitter, but I’d like to get a more broad idea of what people think about developing applications inside a virtual environment. Results were pretty much on both extremes, either people love it, or people told me I need to get a new IT staff. We do have virtual servers running already, but the reality of actually developing inside a “virtual workstation” might be totally different. The upside of having different virtual environments available to me to use and not have
