The Bing Maps API is a free, easy to use API, that allows you to incorporate mapping features into your ASP.NET MVC or application by using Web standards such as JavaScript, and the now supported HTML5 Geolocation. Bing Maps and ASP.NET MVC A Bing maps API key is required when using the API. The Bing Maps key allows you to access Geolocation data, and to manipulate an in-view ... (more)

Spatial search is the process of searching locations nearby to a position in space.  A good example of a spatial search would be finding all of the restaurants near your present location. With Google’s Maps API and SQL Server’s Geography data types we can build a quick spatial search in no time. In this little exercise I will be detecting the user’s location, displaying it on a map and suggesting nearby restaurants. Since not all browsers support the W3C standards I will also allow manual input of the... (more)

In my previous post on the Geolocation API I passed in a PositionErrorCallback to the geolocation.getCurrentPosition() method. When I received this callback I displayed a generic message informing the user something went wrong. In real-world scenarios you probably want the message to be more specific. You might also want to call a specific fallback method depending on what went wrong. This is where the PositionError argument of the PositionErrorCallback comes in handy. This object has two properties:... (more)

I read about the HTML5 Geolocation API in the Pro HTML5 Programming book a while ago, and decided to play with it on this lazy Sunday. Using the Geolocation API to make a one-shot position request is very straight-forward. Get a reference to the navigator.geolocation object.. (more)

In my previous post I showed the most interesting code fragments for a location-aware Windows Phone 7 application. The code generates an event stream corresponding to location readings from the phone’s location subsystem. However, there are many applications that instead of lat/long readings need to compute the traveled distance (for example, when driving, biking, running, or hiking). This post shows how to convert the position readings from the Windows Phone location subsystem into distance measurements... (more)
