radar in map, but not in player - krpano example

[Virtualguide]

Hi,
I wonder, whether somebody tried do place the radar in external map - not in player, which could communicate with panorama?

See this krpano example:
http://gade.dgs.dk/

How to do this in FPP?
Thanks

DGS, which belongs to a larger European group, is the competition to the company Eniro that I work for. And their map implementation - like ours - is an advanced Javascript solution with thousands of lines of code. It is not a simple Google map implementation. I guess the interaction between the map and the pano would be some kind of ExternalInterface API.

Pretty soon we will launch a brand new panorama walk around map page that will make the DGS pages really look outdated. It will be some advanced 3D panorama implementation (NOT FPP!). I could tell you more about it, but then I would have to kill you...

If I may ask and you're allowed to answer, what will be this application for? A sort of 3D/Virtual directory? for what usage? what's the difference between such services and GoogleMap/StreetView? (user speaking, no technical questions here).

[allSaints]

The purpose is roughly the same as that of the DGS application mentioned above. To give the viewer a street view as complement to the usual maps and aerial photos. It is all part of a bigger picture, where people can search the yellow pages and get links to company locations. The goal is to generate web hits to persuade the companies to pay for being searchable in the online yellow pages.

The technical solution WILL be similar to the Google Street View. Ouchhh! Now you lured me into telling you! ...Nidrig - you're in trouble...

Should I cancel my next vacations to Stockholm, then?

I would be interested in knowing when the application goes live, if you're willing to share ;)

No, of course not - you are most welcome here.

Regarding the date, they can't (or won't) tell - they are in a race with Google now, who can deliver Street View first in Sweden. The Google cars have already been here with their cameras, but it probably takes a few months to process the data and get all systems working. And as I have seen ours in a test environment, I gather it's more a question about fine-tuning it.

Hi Tommy maibe that's of your interest :

It's about the time that google takes to upload to the web the panos they were taking..

In this link (http://maps.google.es/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=es&geocode=&q=sabadell&sll=40.396764,-3.713379&sspn=9.851618,23.269043&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Sabadell,+Barcelona,+Catalu%C3%B1a&ll=41.554405,2.106028&spn=0.009458,0.022724&z=16&layer=c&cbll=41.554343,2.105948&panoid=XFkogeCBRDcX0l-4YaG3IQ&cbp=12,63.85,,2,-17.68) you can see me and my brother, we were smoking a cigarrete in the window and the google cars just came across, jijijijij

This was in 17 july of 2008, and the panos where in the web in 20 may 2009, so almost 12 months to prepare all the images....
So maibe that can help you in a time reference for the race with google ;)

I hope you will win them, otherwise the empire became unbeatable

Thanks jordi,

so, now we know where you live ... don't write anything stupid now, eh... COMPRENDE?!!

No, that's a great picture of you two - just in the right time.

And talking about time - yes, that is an interesting piece of information that might prove valuable to our map department.
