How We Watch the City, Paper from Microsoft Research.
Posted on April 6, 2007 by Reverend Dan Catt
The data was taken from 8 months worth of Virtual Earth tile server logs over 2006.Therefor what is being displayed is where people are looking on the map. This was also done at different zoom levels, meaning that it’s also possible to see where people are looking within cities, here’s Seattle …Although I’m kinda curious as to why people look at tiles along bridges, perhaps that’s just the average eyes-per-tile but they stand out against the water.

Canada moves to free geo data …
Posted on April 4, 2007 by Reverend Dan Catt
so in their own words…April 2, 2007 – In response to demands from users for no fee access to framework geographic data and the increasing technological shift in the marketplace, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), is pleased to announce that starting April 1st 2007, the Earth Sciences Sector (ESS) will change the way its Digital Topographic Data (DTD) can be accessed.On April 1st, 2007, NRCan will start to make its existing DTD products available through the Geogratis Web portal (http://www.geogratis.ca)…. Under the new distribution policy, commercial licenses will no longer be required, as all users will obtain rights for unlimited use and royalty free distribution of the data through a single unrestricted use license agreement.From over here “Important Notice”, sorry no permalink, but judging by the page they update news maybe three times a year, so the link should be good for a while yet.Thanks Neil.
