ESRI ArcGIS JavaScript Extension for Virtual Earth

ESRI ArcGIS JavaScript Extension for Virtual Earth

ESRI just publicly released their a new version of their ArcGIS JavaScript Extension...using Virtual Earth. Now, you can leverage the powerful analytics and computational GIS models in ESRI ArcGIS Server and visualize this information on Microsoft Virtual Earth.

"The ArcGIS JavaScript™ Extension for Microsoft Virtual Earth™ allows you to extend the Microsoft Virtual Earth API™ to use ArcGIS Server services. With this extension, you can add your own data to the Microsoft Virtual Earth™ Map Control and embed this map in your own page."



The ESRI ArcGIS JavaScript Extension for Virtual Earth Interactive SDK is now live and you can start writing applications against it today. The API includes the following features:

Show a map
Add a service from my ArcGIS Server
Identify features on the map
Identifying things on the map at a point

What a fantastic marriage of technologies! ESRI's relentless geodata processing with Virtual Earth's presentation layer. Does it get better than this? Perhaps. Are you going to the ESRI User Conference? I'm not going to miss a free ride to my home town. :)
