See all the projects at once

I have been working on getting the brochures into the system. I also cut the picture off and use that.

Today I thought, "How about showing all the pictures at once?". I created a new PHP file and had it working rather quickly. A few tweaks here and there and you can navigate to the project the image is for.

I should probably not show them all at the same time.

Free GIS tool

I found this software a while ago. Have not used it.

MapWindow GIS Open Source Software

The MapWindow application is a free, extensible, geographic information system (GIS) that can be used:
  • As an alternative desktop GIS
  • To distribute data to others
  • To develop and distribute custom spatial data analyses

Meeting with Bob Werner

Last week I met with Bob Werner of UST. I told him more about Mano a Mano.

Then I told him about the mapping project. First to get cities and major road data for GPSes. But in the future to get the small roads. Especially with Mano a Mano Bolivia's help.

He was quite interested. I left him the data I had collected with cities. He will get a student to get it into a format for GPS.
