Wow.... pretty lively debate. I was wondering if Microsoft might again be
able to gain the upper hand (or slight of hand) to absorb positional
qualities in all data not just SQL Server?
I was wondering what MapPoint.net means to any of this?
http://www.microsoft.com/mappoint/net/
"MapPoint .NET is Microsoft's platform for mapping and location intelligence
offering companies a highly cost-effective way to support location and
mapping features in their business or consumer applications. In the past,
businesses hoping to include location functionality in their customer
solutions were forced to make an investment in Geographic Information System
(GIS) tools, license data from a variety of vendors and employ developers
proficient in specialized programming languages. With MapPoint .NET,
Microsoft aggregates location and mapping data into a single,
subscription-based Web service taking the cost of data management off the
company's plate. And, because the .NET platform is based on open Internet
standards such as SOAP and XML, MapPoint .NET puts location solutions within
easy grasp of any in-house developer or ISV (independent software vendor)."
