3D Tracking

Having acquired my new phone (Nokia 6630) and a cheap Bluetooth GPS from EBay. I’ve finally been able to test 3dtracking.net
It all works just as advertised on the web site. Simply install a small application on your mobile, turn on a Bluetooth GPS and walk around. Your location is transmitted by the mobile to the 3dtracking server which draws your track live on a Google Map or in Google Earth.

A practical fieldwork application still eludes me, but I’m working on it!

Simon Renshaw has sent a really well-executed Google Tour of the Holderness coast.

This is a classic coastal place study, and the tour makes use of map extracts and the excellent photgraphs by Andrew Stacey.

Excellent effort!
