Our focus was to provide unique examples of geographic technologies in action. For example, we learned how to use C# to read location information from a GPS device. We also took advantage of Microsoft’s new game development platform, XNA, to demonstrate how to build more powerful mapping applications.

Update: In 2008, Spatial Horizons is currently on hiatus while we work on other projects. The future is uncertain but we hope to return in some form in 2009. Stay tuned…

We explore how geography, maps, and location-based services can change the way we interact with information.

The primary purpose of this blog is to serve as a project journal. Entries will discuss and describe the various geospatial projects we are working on currently. Hopefully they will provide instruction to some readers and inspiration to others.
