ArcGIS Explorer free map viewer coming in 06


ArcGIS Explorer free map viewer coming in 06
Originally uploaded by GISuser.com.

ESRI's newest viewing client, ArcGIS Explorer is reported to be prepared for release in early 2006. Users can pan,zoom, rotate (Globes), and integrate data and servies from ArcGIS clients, WMS services, and even Google Earth KMLs. Rather interesting as Google never really had any intention (as far as I have heard) of making KML a data standard, however, it appears that the likes of ESRI, FME, and others are now making KML an important data standard to be supported. More on this free 2D and 3D viewer available from ESRI at www.esri.com/software/arcgis/arcgisexplorer/index.html - posted by GISuser.com

At the GCQ1RQ "Landru, Guide Us!" geocache, Boxford State Forest, Boxford/N. Andover/Middleton, MA.

So this trail was closed. In the middle of the forest. And Doug and I thought it was painfully ironic because ALL OF THE FOREST IS FREAKIN' ANIMAL HABITAT.

gah.

Didn't anyone put up trail closures where we ran into freakin' beaver dams? no. That's freakin' habitat. Flooded the trails with its habitatness.

gah.

Geocaching at GCQRA6 The Rain in Maine. Never before have we had such good reception. Nine satellites at full power, except for the one that dipped just as I took the picture.

First, go to www.sonyericsson.com/support, select your region, and
click the Support tab. Then, click Software Downloads and type GC82
into the search field. Click EDGE PC Card GC82. This takes you to the
support page.

Download the "Sony Ericsson Wireless Manager" and install it. It should be newer than what came in the box.

NOW you can insert the card :-)
