Mar 31: The LinkedGeoData repository moved to GitHub . Look there how you can now convert the data you want yourself! LinkedGeoData is an effort to add a spatial dimension to the Web of Data / Semantic Web. LinkedGeoData uses the information collected by the OpenStreetMap project and makes it available as an RDF knowledge base according to the Linked Data principles. It interlinks this data with other knowledge bases in the Linking Open Data initiative.
REDMOND, WASH. — May 19, 2009 — In today's fast-paced world, we routinely share information about our location with multiple people several times per day. This is traditionally done via email, phone call or text message — until now. Glympse Inc. today unveiled the public beta of its namesake service, Glympse™, offering the quickest and easiest way to safely share location from a mobile phone to help users visually answer the common question of "Where are you?" Only Glympse allows users to share their whereabouts with anyone they choose for a set amount of time using the company's patent-pending GlympseWatch™ technology. Initially available on T-Mobile G1™ phones with Android, Glympse will soon be available on the iPhone, BlackBerry®, Windows Mobile® and other leading smartphone devices. With Glympse, people can quickly share their location, pinpointed on a dynamic map, with anyone in their contact list as easily as sending a text message or making a phone call.
