Announcing MapBox Streets: A Global Map with Street Level Detail By Dave Cole We’re excited to release MapBox Streets, our first global block-level map powered by OpenStreetMap. MapBox Streets makes it incredibly easy to get a beautiful, fresh street map on your website or mobile application in place of Google Maps. Get started now using MapBox Streets with a free account from MapBox, or with any of our monthly plans for higher usage and bulk support. For a step-by-step walk-through of how to use MapBox Streets in your web application, see Get Started with MapBox Streets. Powered by open data OpenStreetMap is a wiki-style geographic database with 2.7 billion GPS traces from over 545,000 registered users. OpenStreetMap is open for anyone to contribute, which has proven critical, even in situations of crisis response. Fresh design We wanted to design a map that was flexible enough to be the right choice for a variety of use cases. What’s next
History in Motion CartoTalk Blog | Gephi, open source graph visualization software - Part 4 Community ~ gexf gexf4j Francesco Ficarola is a Computer Engineer and a Ph.D. student at the Sapienza University of Rome. In addition he is been working for an Italian company as R&D Engineer for one year. His main research interests are Wireless Sensor Networks, Social Networking and whatever concerns “Internet of Things”. Gephi supports the 1.2draft of GEXF file format since version 0.8. Until now, if you are a Java developer, you couldn’t use any up-to-date Java library to manage this version of the format. The latest version of gexf4j (currently 0.3.1) supports new XML attributes and data types to encode dynamic networks: timeformat or spellopen intervals (startopen/endopen)doubledatexsd:dateTime In addition, the javadoc has been added and all methods have now meaningful names for their parameters. Checkout code Rungit clone Report issues Simply go to the Issues tab. Have a nice “GEXF graph”! Francesco Ficarola (gender == "male").color = blue

Visual Programming Arduino: modkit and the others | dev.SquareCows.com Not long ago, our friend [Ed Baafi] told us about the amazing work he was doing on ModKit: a very interesting project in bringing visual programming on the Arduino side. Making programming as easy as building bricks is the common Quest of many different projects, aimed to work in the Educational field, teaching kids build their own programs (and toys). Modkit is an in-browser graphical programming environment for little devices called embedded systems. Modkit can currently program Arduino and Arduino compatible hardware using simple graphical blocks similar to and heavily inspired by the Scratch programming environment developed by the Lifelong Kindergarten Group at the MIT Media Lab.Modkit is currently available by invite only. Brian’s post has a good review about all the other arduino visual programmers. [Comment if I miss any] I’ll try to update and add some expreriences to this list (thanks Brian!)

Babuinobot What is Babuino? Babuino is a software program that combines the power of the Arduino hardware platform with the intuitive and fun Logo programming language using a click and drag GUI interface. This allows even young children to build their own programs and run them on a microcontroller. The program on the left uses only 5 blocks to make a speaker beep whenever a button is pressed. What is so Special About the Babuinobot? It's Affordable Costs will vary considerably depending on bulk purchase discounts, availability of local materials, re-using parts and materials from discarded waste and electronics, etc. Free Open Source Software All of the software mentioned in this website for programming the Babuinobot is free, as in "you do not need to pay for it." Open Source Hardware The circuitry is based on the Arduino, a very popular hardware/software platform that is open hardware. Accommodates a Wide Range of Programming Abilities It's Flexible Works With Multiple Operating Systems It's Fun!!
