I won't be able to make it for the UC this year.  Go figure...the State of Kansas wouldn't pay for me to attend the UC in sunny and cool San Diego for my last week on the job.  I tell ya.  Some government agencies sure don't have their priorities straight! 

Not to fear...The Mapdex talk will go on.  Keith Hunsiger of the Survey will be taking my place to give the talk.

UC2144 - Using Mapdex to Discover the Geospatial Web

Room: Room 29-C
Date: Tuesday, August 8, 2006
Time: 3:00 PM - 3:30 PM

Thanks Keith!  I will pay for one of your drinks at the Embassy...

Hi All,

A while back I blogged about mining historical imagery from the Mapdex database.  Basically there is a lot of time based imagery available to the user.  With this historical imagery you can see how a river meanders or how a city changes through time.  It is pretty neat.  (This is a much less disturbing example than the one that Frank from VerySpatial blogged about today).

Well around that time Keith, Asif, Ken, and Amber from our group (man am I going to miss working with them...) thought it would be neat to be able to visualize images through time.  Building on the idea behind ESRI's swipe tool, they built a flash application that allows multiple images to be blended and swiped.  I can't really explain it.  How about a couple of visuals....
