GeoTracing.com - Create Multimedial Geo-applications

A newly-launched software platform, GeoTracing enables the user to create what are termed “multimedial geo-applications”. These are applications that allow the user to tell a multimedial story about their movements through different landscapes. Every mean of transportation is taken into account, be it foot, bike or car.

The applications that have been developed with GeoTracing are listed on the main page, and forthcoming applications also have their own space. By way of example, some of the available applications include the ones titled “TraceLand” and “GeoSailing”.

Furthermore, the user can register and download the featured MobiTracer mobile client, a personalized Java application which runs on a cellphone. This application makes for reading GPS location data from a GPS module and sending it to a server. Using this information, the routes followed by MobiTracers can be viewed by others. Moreover, track-annotations can be sent for reference purposes.

A mailing list is available, and it will be of interest both to first-time users and developers everywhere. Just submit your e-mail address when prompted if you want to join it.
