I am at the GEOINT 2009 conference in San Antonio, Texas, extolling the virtues of Bing Maps and the Virtual Earth Server to the geospatial intelligence crowd. "The Virtual Earth WHAT?" you may ask. Microsoft's geospatial subsidiary, Vexcel Corporation, offers an scalable standalone appliance solution that includes the Bing Maps basemap imagery, geocoding, map control and APIs for private and classified networks (read: no internet connection). The product was first introduced at this same confernece in 2008 prior to rebranding of Virtual Earth to Bing Maps, hence the Virtual Earth reference. The company has recently announced version 2 of the server, that now includes enterprise tools for integrating customer geospatial content.
On October 29th, Vexcel and Microsoft partner, IDV Solutions, will be presenting on the integration of the Virtual Earth Server and IDV's Visual Fusion enterprise mashup platform for offline business intelligence solutions.
Check it out. You can register here. -=Virtual Jerry
